Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

Thanks, I'll give a try! I was thinking maybe I could use both: syncthing for devices and nexcloud to have a backup
Nextcloud isn't a backup solution, so I wouldn't go that route.
For backups look at Restic, Kopia, or Borg. They work great and are very lightweight.
Why do you think that Nextcloud is not a good backup solution?
I had some files which rot away over the years, who knows which update borked them, i use it as a cache for real backups for important files
