So I want to build a home server to use as a media server, and to back up my photos etc.
I am also currently doing an online course, and happen to spend some time at work as well as at home working on it. I don’t like using Google where I can help it, but I find google docs really useful. So I’m wondering if there’s an open source application that works essentially the same, but I could run off my own server? It would have to be web-based as I use Windows at work and can’t install new programs :/
edit: Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I’ve got quite a few leads to follow now, it should be fun!
It’s fine if you don’t set it up on a dogshit slow rPi and use postgres/redis in the docker compose. Every time I see this comment, it’s because of configuration errors or horrible hardware.
Man, use Sharepoint on anything under a dual Xeon and see true lag.
This is true, with a couple gigs of RAM and SATA storage Nextcloud is not at all bad. Assuming an instance with not that much simultaneous users.
It feels like slow sometimes, then after an hour with M365 at work it doesn’t feel slow at all.
Is there a way to transition from MariaDB to Postgres? I used the mariadb / redis version of the docker-compose, but now I hear everyone says Postgres is better for performance?
I ran it on a Dell EMC server blade and it was still awful. I couldn’t help but think I was doing something wrong, because its performance was shockingly bad. I also couldn’t get any of the office stuff to work acceptably, so I’ve given up on it for the time being.
