Why Nextcloud feels slow to use(ounapuu.ee)

Nextcloud is the most confusing thing I've tried to figure out how to install as a non-Linux user (i.e. Windows admin) being told to "just install Docker then do this".

As someone who has hosted a few Nextcloud instances for a few years: Nextcloud can be quick if you make it work. If you want to get a good feel for how it can be rent a Hetzner storage box (1TB for below 5 Euros a month).

You sadly can't just install nextcloud on your vanilla server and expect it to perform well.

Do you have any tips and tricks to share? I'm running a self-hosted instance on an old desktop PC in my basement for me and a couple family members. Performance is kinda meh, and I don't think it's due to resource constraints on the server itself. This is after following the performance recommendations in the admin console to tweak php.ini settings.

Thie was a few years ago so I can't say I exsctly remember, but thinking about PHP performance is certainly one of the good routes to think about.

Javascript making PHP look bad.

My Nextcloud constantly needs updated. One day I started getting some odd random error about the database. The advice I got was do all this convoluted stuff to maybe get it working again. I uninstalled, and haven’t gone back. It’s just not in the same league as paid alternatives.

I think there’s something cool possible in running the NextCloud plugin api over Sandstorm’s auth and sandboxing

I don't think I will ever use something like that. I work in over 10 PCs everyday and my only synchronisation is a 16 GB USB stick. I keep all important work, apps and files there.

Maybe it because of using PHP?

Nope. Php is sufficiently fast.

Microsoft Teams goes hold my beer and downloads more than 75 MB of Javascript.
