Hey there – I’m interaction designer at Nextcloud and did the exterior design of the box (little of the interior as that was indeed done by WDLabs). We’re working on improvements to the box and the bends of the cables are something we take

Well, legal stuff and also you just don't badmouth people you worked with until recently. It's simply not nice, and we are still friends with some of the Inc employees. For more info I recommend the Q&A from Frank and Jos toda

Most likely this is what needs to happen sooner or later. For now the existing iOS app can be used of course since it can connect to any ownCloud/Nextcloud server. Or any WebDAV app, for that matter cause we support open standards. We

It’s not a »risk which was taken«. ownCloud started out as a pure open source project and the company was formed later. Having it under a free software license / open source is exactly so that the community can step in when there is a

Great stuff! Working as designer on ownCloud where we use Jenkins it always felt outdated in the design department. Really good to see the improvements! I also added the main contributors of the repository to the Open Source Design collecti

This sounds a lot like Tomahawk: https://tomahawk-player.org/ – playing from different sources and all. Of course that’s a desktop app, but it’s pretty popular already and well designed.

You can enable and disable pretty much everything – except Files. That’s because it’s the core app and others like Gallery, PDF viewing, Music etc of course rely on there being files. There have been requests to even make it possible to dis

Exactly why ownCloud implements CalDAV and CardDAV, the common standard for Calendar and Contact sync. No reinventing the wheel here. Also, exporting your data is as simple as pressing the download button and getting an ics / vcf file.
