As an existing NextCloud user, with plenty of personal data in my self hosted instance, this does absolutely NOTHING to inform me why the FLYING FUCK i want to risk exposing my NextCloud to the internet with these new social media related features, no discussion of how important security is, no emphasis on how I can trust NextCloud with being a public web accessible server the public can access and simultaneously trust my most personal of self hosted data to the same server.
I want things like this to help people control their own data, it’s important for these projects to exist lest the future be ruled by or entirely dependent on big corporations… but when your existing business is building the tool(s) I trust with the data I trust no one else with… do a fucking better job not making me dismiss shit like this as “crap I’d have to run a second server to be able to use”
Because my life is busy enough I barely have the time to manage my one self hosted NextCloud at home… if you make this one micron harder I’m just going to say “Fuck it“ and use a different isolated tool for running my own fediverse server. And I say this as someone building my own personal social site aggregator based tool. Do. Not. Make. It. Hard. To. Trust. You.
- poisonborz 4y agoI agree this feature isn't really wished by the userbase, and they could spend development resources better, but like everything in Nextcloud this will be just an app that you can disable with a click, so no reason to rage about it.
- kornhole 4y agoNobody is telling you to make your server public. Configure it the way you want. Naturally you won't be able to use features like this if you don't make it publicly accessible.
