    💻 Desktop sync client for Nextcloud (by nextcloud)

  • Also forget about the automatic upload feature in the Android client, I switched to FolderSync for a reliable experience.

    I've managed to get OnlyOffice working, Collabora Office previously broke for some reason. However latest upgrade also broke OnlyOffice. The solution for this is to put the secret and authorization headers into config.php in addition to the OnlyOffice plugin settings. [2] No idea why, but that is a thing.

    My Nextcloud runs as a normal PHP application and I haven't had any issues with upgrading yet. Going from, I think, version 23 on Debian 11 to 27.1 now on a different machine running Debian 12 since I started using it.

    Maybe I should find something more focused on file syncing, but the all-in-one approach of Nextcloud and its various plugins makes trying some new services very easy.

  • DecSync

    Synchronize RSS, contacts, calendars, tasks and more without a server

  • A few years back I used to use SyncThing + DecSync for that purpose, and it worked quite well. Looks like it hasn't been updated in a while though.

  • watchtower

    A process for automating Docker container base image updates.

  • > if you're using the docker image, upgrades are a breeze. Just bump the tag on the image, redeploy, and you're done.

    Or you could just run Watchtower beside it and it will automatically update your docker containers. https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower If you are OK with automated updates.

  • appstore

    :convenience_store: App Store for Nextcloud

  • I have good news for you: https://apps.nextcloud.com

    Nextcloud is nothing more than a collection of small apps. You can disable even core things like sharing.

  • plugin-installer

    A composer installer for Roundcube plugins

  • Although I don't find composer that painful (except for one weird bug related to skin installation: https://github.com/roundcube/plugin-installer/issues/41).

NOTE: The number of mentions on this list indicates mentions on common posts plus user suggested alternatives. Hence, a higher number means a more popular project.
