The upside is that you don't have to install much serverside.
- bitJericho 10y agoThe nice thing with nextcloud is it allows you to share to the public, just like dropbox but self hosted.
- tedunangst 10y agoThat just means you rsync to the public www directory instead. :)
- tw04 10y agoSo your rsync+ssh solution to one-click share-a-link that is one-time use or with an expiration date is what?
- tedunangst 10y agoThe knowledge that one time links are a terrible means of access control.
- tw04 10y agoAhh, the old "I don't have a response so I'll just say the feature you use everyday is 'terrible'". The market would suggest you are completely wrong.
- newsat13 10y agoCan you help me understand how you think your solution is an alternative? * What do you do for mobile access? * How do you share to a single person or a group? * What do you do for team collaboration?
- chrisper 10y agoMaybe I should add that I'm the only user and I don't need to sync between mobile. I also don't need to share since all I need is to sync between my laptop and my Desktop.
- simplehuman 10y agoWhat features did you miss with such minimal requirements?
- chrisper 10y agoWell, I guess I wanted to see what gets synced, before it gets synced. I can easily do that with rsync by running it in dry mode first. There is also Unison, which is similar.
