Any plans to make self-hosting straight-forward? Granted, I haven't spent much time looking for it, but I've been looking for something similar to this for quite some time, and Nextcloud's Collabora isn't quite what I'm looking for.
- twiss 9y agoNot really, because of https://news.ycombinator.com/edit?id=15596604 https://news.ycombinator.com/edit?id=15596604. Why would you like to self-host? (Not implying that there are no valid reasons, just curious which reasons are important to you.)
- sfotm 9y agoNothing in particular, I just already have a server set up with a good amount of storage because I didn't want to pay year-to-year for something like dropbox to save photos and videos to. I'd also be interested in getting the documents to appear in my Nextcloud and vice-versa. At the end of the day, it's mostly about having everything in a central location with a good set of backups in place.
- twiss 9y agoI see. What are you missing in Collabora? There's also OnlyOffice for Nextcloud, which is quite a feature-complete editor, I think: https://api.onlyoffice.com/editors/owncloud https://api.onlyoffice.com/editors/owncloud
- SliderUp 9y agoI wanted to look into self hosting because it's the only way, for security reasons, my company could use it.
- notyourday 9y agoBecause if I'm going to bet on someone other than Google keeping my crap secure and accessible, I'm going to be betting on myself, not on some fly by night entity with a very limited runway.
- freeone3000 9y agoGoogle locked me out of my documents. I have more trust in Google to provide a service than you. If Google does not reliably provide the service, I'm moving the service on-prem.
