Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

  7. No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

It took about 2 days of using nextcloud files across devices to experience unreliable syncing from Nextcloud on Android.

I installed folder sync pro on android and that has helped a lot, but it still irks me to use 2 tools when 1 should do the job.

Did you try Syncthing at all? I ran into the same issues with Nextcloud on Android and I'm trying to decide on Syncthing or FolderSync and I wanted to see what people thought. I'm currently using Cryptomator but it doesn't do everything I'd like yet.
