Cons
>Servers are located in Texas
>10GB free

Pros
>don't need to download to access the files just an internet connection
>It reads like a disk drive (P:)so even low storage tablets like my Surface 3 can access all the files I have without downloading anything.
>can upgrade to 20GB


It's my favorite storage since now that customs check your laptop I can sign out immediately beforehand and when I'm in another country I can immediately sign in and access all my files without downloading everything again.

Use webdav

nextcloud is where the devs defected to.
pretty cool and easy to host if you've got some experience with loonix. got a domain and a letsencrypt cert for https, got my calendar and contacts synced with caldav.
would recommend if you have sometime to spare to get it going and maintaining it.

Can it work as a stand-in for icloud?

what functions are you using? there are some server side apps that help pad out the base features nextcloud comes with, but not sure if icloud is more ingrained into your machines.
if you are just looking for the file sync, then yeah it worked just like dropbox when i used that. replaced that function easy enough.

I have an iphone that I use google calenders that sync with my macbook, but I mainly use the macbook for managing all the photos I take with my iphone. i love how easily photos sync with icloud otherwise I woudn't use iOS/OSX at all, but I'd prefer not to use icloud for security reasons.

well, you gotta work with apache/nginx security a bit if you want to lockdown the nextcloud instance,
so that's what i meant by it taking sometime to set it up and maintain it. if you value convenience then just stick with what you've got.
if you want to get your hands dirty, their guide is pretty good to get going with. i think digital ocean has it as a one click thing too if you want to do that to start.

got a droplet as well running nextcloud.

Don't store anything sensitive on a VPS.

>be sys admin
>check nodes
>fuck around with containers as much as I want.

Just don't.

I get 25 GB from my provider (Telekom) without additional fees.

You should try SeaFile. Its kinda like OwnCloud and NextCloud but i've found it to be lighter on the system. They also have a pretty detailed guide on how to set it up behind apache or ngnix.

i use the microsoft botnet one. werks4me.


oh and a dropbox account for my radio project
