r3 VS Syncloud

Maybe you want to try out https://github.com/r3-team/r3

REI3 is fully open-source, used by organizations and individuals that like to run free software.

There is also REI3 - completely open-source and free to use. There is a default logo on the login page, but you can edit that out with 1-2 lines of code if you want.

I am a contributor to the project. We just spent a lot of time building this latest major release and are always looking to get more feedback.

You can however always change the code so that the feature runs regardless - the source code is completely open.

I was a helm user. Unfortunately, the helm went bellyup in December 2022. However, the nextcloud sofrware coupled with the helm/home server solution worked well. I am interested home solution, for sharing files. I am considering HomeDrive or the other solutions proposed on the nexcloud website (https://nextcloud.com/devices/) . I am wondering if there has been any successes or failures with HomeDrive N7 or similar device that suppors nextcloud, for a home server. I researched reddit and found folks recommending syncloud.org, however, as of 4/29/23 at 10:32 AM PST there severs are not available to me for some reason or another.

If you do not trust the cloud, there are managed self-hosting options where you can host your nextcloud physically at home, like using nextcloudpi, HomeDrive or Syncloud, where you only need to trust their software update to keep the system secure and to not plant a back door Some are also open source, so in theory you can even audit and build the software by yourself. In the worst case, when you feel that your data is in danger, you have the option to physically unplug your data off the network. For this kind of self-hosting at your own place, remember to at least properly get a valid TLS/HTTPS certificate.
