>2043-30+3 >Why aren't you hosting an owncloud server yet?

I just use SFTP from my filemanager. I haven't found a reason to use that.

reinstalling it after wiping my vps today.

but it has been giving me trouble.

gotta get this done though.

Solution for a non-existant problem. I'd like a WebDAV server tho, I believe you can mount it as a folder on Android phones, then, for example, play music from it using your favorite player.

Why is delta sync good again?

seafile works much quicker and is painless to install and maintain in comparison

>>52966797
But i do anon, have been for a few years now.

what do you use it for, people who use it?

I have it.

I rarely use it.
At first I thought I'd be able to make a floating library for media/music/software that i can access easily, but thus far i've only used it once to throw all files on there.
The rest -like small documents and screenshots- have been going over all three other competitors i.e. onedrive, google drive and dropbox.

Odd, really.

>>52966797
I do.

i use syncthing for that kind of thing

>>52969219
ok, this works for me. and that for you.

>>52967821
If you host your Files on a VPS, you can also host them on any cloud service. As long as someone else has access to the server you're fucked.

>>52969219
Syncthing uses more resources though.

>>52969245
you can encrypt the files, you can move to a company you trust.

but besides this, you can also self host if you are that concerned. just taking the bill of electricity and other fees as a necessary expense.

either way, much better than trusting a proprietary service like dropbox, onedrive, etc.

>>52969234
so you don't use owncloud for anything but syncing files?

>>52969282
you sure? syncthing is using ~40M ram on my desktop atm, i don't have it on my vps as syncthing is serverless and i have no need to store files there

>>52969445
caldav and carddav for my calendar and contacts.

but what more do you want? there are apps you could use on it, but i just use the desktop/mobile applications to sync my shit.

>>52969232
Any tutorials on this?

can I Install It from Remote desktop?

>>52967784
My dual processor PowerMac G5 server consumes around $10/month in electricity, modern hardware should do much better, especially if you're not a dumbass and build a server instead of using your desktop as one.

>>52969652
>remote desktop
why, waste of bandwidth, use ssh

>>52969826
I dont have ssh setup on my computer and im on my works wifi so bandwidth is not an issue and anyway caps should be illigalized

>>52969842
what os is it?
you can set up sshd in like 2 minutes if you don't use gentoo or something

Shouldn't be too hard considering the install configures it for you. Are you sure you're not retarded?

>>52970514
Maybe he's doing that on Windows.

>>52966797
Because Seafile is better.
Owncloud is an unstable piece of shit

>>52966797
Because I prefer syncthing. P2P is the way of the future.

Are the newer RaPis better for owncloud?
I have the first version and I thought it is a little bit laggy for serious usage.

>>52966797
Because they dropped Windows support, because "it was too difficult for us to support". Which is ironic, considering there are how many different linux distros and only ~5 versions of Windows to support.

The real irony, is if you read the bug reports for the specific issues that caused OwnCloud to abandon Windows .... people posted fixes to them years ago, and they never bothered to implement them.

Solar FTW. I pay ~$20/month for running a 20+ drive file server and a hyperV lab and 10 computers and AC (ran 24/7).

And I was paying nearly $600/month because of it (a large part, due to the AC). Within 2 years, it has already paid for itself. Literally.

What's your excuse?

>>52971522
Yes, "Cloud" is a marketing buzzword meaning "data hosted in somebody else's data center".

If you're hosting it yourself, what's the problem?

>>52966797
Doesn't work for large files, which makes it pointless to me. sticking to samba+sftp.

I can upload 16GB files. How much bigger do you need?

Because I'm hosting a Seafile server.

Because it has always been unstable as fuck and breaks every time I did an update through the official updater.

I actually have an ownCloud install on a VPS that was broken by an update. Eventually I'll get around to finding a non-shit ownCloud replacement.

>>52972352
seafile if you just want stable.
you could also try cozy, but that is even more broken.

>>52968137
you can use ownCloud through WebDAV.

>>52971498
Despite linux having hundreds of distro's, they are more similar to each other then the 5 versions of windows are.

Because I have a sshfs/sftp server and that's all I care about.

>>52972464
I'll take a look at Seafile.

One I was looking at was Pydio. Probably overkill for my needs, but appeared to be stable for the little amount of time I used it. There wasn't a working sync client for my OS at the time, so despite everything else it was a complete non-starter. Now there's a sync client, so there's another thing to throw on the list of solutions to try.

Does it still destroy your data if you use it to store big (4+GB) files?

Son you might be retarded, you put in your own comment why delta sync is good.

>>52970869
>P2P is the way of the future.
pretty much this but Server/client still makes sense in many cases

>>52971498
>considering there are how many different linux distros and only ~5 versions of Windows to support.

All those DEs and Distros use the same interface to communicate so you actually just need to add extra stuff in very rare edge cases

>people posted fixes to them years ago, and they never bothered to implement them.
Maybe those people should have submitted code patches instead of whatever they did.

>>52974785
Haven't had that issue

Shit they sell radon? They're not getting their hands on my Chinese cartoons!

>>pay hugepile $$$ for electricity, pay for repairs and waste time for maintain

$60 a year for electricity. For that I get a seedbox, www server, owncloud instance, nested raid nas and anything else I want to virtualize. Hard to beat.

>>instead of using 3d party infrastructure for free
I have a free aws instance, but its so limited in many ways. It has its benefits, but I like my own. Plus its free only for a year.

Wait. This was a bait.
