    I’m surprised that Nextcloud haven’t gone the whole way, and built a complete, lightweight, OS by now.

      They already struggle to maintain their feature-creep in Nextcloud itself, so why reinvent the wheel to make yet another Linux distribution?

        … because they’re half way there, really.

        Edit: Nextcloud feels different to an OS… Even though you work with apps (from a “store”) : it’s a contained world. It just seems odd to me that it has to be built atop something else, rather than coming as a complete entity.

    Really cool stuff. Glad to see my gov’t doing the right thing. Even created a nextcloud account because it might be exactly what I’m looking for to replace onedrive on linux (open source code to manually sync).

      So far they just cut & pasted the recommendations of the CCC (more or less) into their wish-list paper… but yes it is a good first step.

        Not bad, but my understanding is Syncthing is not cloud storage? Correct me if I’m wrong, but that’s not even close to what NextCloud or OneDrive does.
