Ask HN: How do people find your blog?
I always wanted to start and write on my blog - just to share some things that other may find useful.
I started with something simple - entirely preloaded (all howtos) and static:
1. http://www.strony.toya.net.pl/~vermaden/links.htm
I assume no one ever entered it ... besides me of course.
Then some time later - I though that having that 'static' links site is pointless - lets start 'proper' blog this time. I have chosen Gogle Blogspot this time.
2. https://vermaden.blogspot.com/
... and after several posts I generally abandoned it.
Several years later I made a decision to make another blog ... but this time with some strategy behind.
3. https://vermaden.wordpress.com/
This (3rd) attempt was 'successful' and people sometimes actually visit my blog - sometimes even comment. In March of 2023 I will 'celebrate' the 5th year of that blog. I have made about 100 posts there and I made about 100,000+ views per year:

What is the secret of [3.] being successful and [1.] and [2.] definitely not? Sharing.
I do not know what blog (subject matter) you are trying to share - but for IT/UNIX/BSD/Linux related blogs (as mine) you need to share each post on these mediums:
- mastodon
- twitter
- lobsters
- hacker news
- FreeBSD forums
- reddit (r/BSD)
- reddit (r/FreeBSD)
- reddit (r/unix)
- reddit (r/linux)
- linkedin
Not sure about Facebook/Meta as their 'ecosystem' definitely does not suit my needs.
You need to ask yourself where and how people would try to find your content. They would definitely not browse a catalog of blogs. Maybe they wil ltry the search engine ... but search engines only pick up sites that are somewhat popular. They omit pages/blogs that are 'unknown'. How blogs are known? By many links pointing to them.
In other words - if you do not share your work/posts on all 'relevant' platforms - then you will 'die' in a 'non-known' hell.
If you believe your work - and it is work, you 'waste' your time to write/share these things you do - is valuable - then share them in all possible mediums/medias. If your content is good - you have to do nothing else. If your content is crap - You will immediately get feedback about it :D
One of the things that I really appreciate was the feedback I got. I often assumed that I know a lot about 'X' topic - just to change my mind after several comments later and providing and UPDATE to my blog post :)
I do not know what should I add here more so I will end my comment - but feel free to ask if You have any questions.

Roundcube Open-Source Webmail Software Merges with 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.

Cloudflare Proxied vs DNS Only for Nextcloud
While reading this article, they were suggesting to modify the maxChunkSize in the Desktop client app configs, problem is, I've had this problem also on mobile... so that's not the solution I need.

Where are the full logs?
I've added a link to this at https://github.com/nextcloud/desktop/issues/3912 which appears to be the right ID tracking it, and from what others have said this appears to be isolated to using the Virtual Files feature.
- Windows VirtualFiles sync broken again?
- Multiple Cloudflare security events from China/Russia/Tor, should I be worried?
- Updated NC to 26.0.1. Cron job not running anymore plus error syncen Invalid modification time

Office file locking not working
I know about this thread. If you look at the pull request that closes this, you see that this implements support in the clients for manual locking using the file_lock app. File locking like in a remote file system is probably not possible using a sync client (see this comment for example).

Nextcloud Desktop 3.8: End-to-End Encryption levels up with sharing
Nextcloud has had too many longstanding bugs like the one that mangles metadata, breaks sync, and requires server side intervention to fix [1]. I don’t trust them to do normal sync anymore. There’s no way I’d take the risk of letting them encrypt my data.
They need to slow down on features before tech debt ruins their product (if it hasn’t already).
