    Hot take. Nextcloud is hot garbage. If you want file sync use Seafile. So so so so much faster and more resource efficient. For the rest of next cloud functionality just use a tool specific to that.

    Nextcloud is still tied to the old php/fpm model. There are better approaches now days. Hell even owncloud is rewriting away from the php/fpm approach.

      This is exactly what I did. I replaced it with a Immich, a webdav client, and an xmpp server (prosody). I only needed online storage for phone photo access/backup and syncing my keepass DB and contacts. I set these apps up once and now I don’t need to touch them.

      Nextcloud is great but too often it’s compared to Google Drive instead of Google Workspace (as seen here). If all you need is cloud storage, use Owncloud (Nextcloud upstream) or any of a thousand similar tools (I use Cloudreve). If you need a full office suite, use Nextcloud.

      The problem is not php-fpm, the problem is when people who perform as SysAdmin dont know how to tweak it properly.

      I deploy Nextcloud instances for production environments. :/

        Why would I need to tweak it when what I ran was provided by Nextcloud as a complete package?

        I’ve also never used a commercial Nextcloud host that has acceptable performance.

        If they are providing their AIO Nextcloud unoptimized that’s even more of a reason to dislike it.
