Oh never mind, I saw this finding announcement for 6M and assumed it was the same company. Looks like they have many corporate investors...doesn't inspire too much confidence.
Although they are still using the Apache 2 license and you can see they are very active in github. It does look like it's a good FOSS project from the surface.
Ya it was bought by kiteworks which provides document management services for corps (which explains why that mention traceable file access in their features a lot).
~~That being said, they bought them in 2014 it seems and it's been a decade now~~ Correcting: they were bought very recently, they have been accepting corporate funding for more than a decade however. That's not bad in and of itself.
Thank your for providing first hand perspective. I'll probably try to spin up a docker deployment for testing.
I don't really plan to use many of the plugins since I think that was the down fall of NextCloud. Trying to do everything instead of doing it's core job well.
Also looking through some of the issues and comments on github about no plans to implement basic features (file search on the android app) does not inspire confidence at all. One of the reasons I'm hoping the OwnCloud rewrite is good.
Did not know this. Thanks!
Looks like Kiteworks invested in OwnCloud in 2014 and they still seems to be going strong with the OSS development which is a good sign.
This probably explains why there are so many active devs on the project and how they got a full rewrite into version 4 relatively quickly.
Already seems to have more features than Seafile.
I know, I did as well.
The point of the post is that there is a very active full rewrite of the whole thing trying to ditch all the tech debt that NextCloud inherited from the OG owncloud (php, Apache etc)
I had NextCloud on a Ryzen 3600 with NVME zfs array. While faster that my previous Intel atom with HDD + SSD cache, Seafile blows it away in terms of speed and resiliency. It feels much more reliable with updates etc.
Exactly, Seafile is the best I've found so far but a clean re write of the basic sync features would be great.
Seafile for example has full text search locked behind a paywall even though tools like Elasticsearch could be integrated into it for free. Even the android app as filename search locked behind a paywall. You have to log into the website on your phone if you need to search.
Pathetic state of affairs.
But my Lord, there is no such force.
But why? What benefit does ipv6 bring to a home network that ipv4 doesn't have?
As you said everything is already setup well with ipv4 so why change it?
Kde has a disable sleep button in the power/battery icon menu which I use as a work around, still annoying and yet another quality of life issue that Just Works (tm) on other platforms
I mean software that's actively being developed can't be called DOA. Even if it's garbage now (and I don't know if it is) doesn't mean it can't become useful at a future date.
Its not like a TV show where once released it can never be changed.
