Hey fellow self-hosters!
I’m a web developer with 20 years of experience, and I’ve noticed that Nextcloud is often the gateway drug into self-hosting for many people. While it’s a great piece of software, I believe there’s room for improvement.
I’m planning to create a new alternative to Nextcloud from scratch, using modern technologies and focusing on user experience. Before I start, I’d love to hear from the community:
- What features of Nextcloud do you use the most?
- What are your main pain points with Nextcloud?
- Which features could you live without?
- What performance issues have you encountered?
- What would you like to see in a modern alternative?
My goal is to create something that maintains the core functionality people love while addressing common complaints and improving overall performance.
Please share your experiences - both positive and negative. Your feedback will help shape this project into something truly useful for the self-hosting community.
Thanks in advance!
