Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Why not nextcloud? Seafile files stores in a proprietary database
I used nextcloud for a year or so, but found the web GUI/apps slow, bloated and sometimes way to buggy ! Switch to owncloud for the simplicity of only having a cloud system without to much bloat.
I just read through the seafile documentation and yeah this is also not going to happen. Maybe I should switch to a simple webdav server...
Couldn't you just install nextcloud and none of the apps you don't need? I mean, it's pretty modular..
How was it setup? Make sure you are using a good SQL backend or else it will be slow.
Its also received a bunch of live recently so it may be worth another look. I would be very careful trusting seafile as it sounds like a locked down proprietary solution
