Nextcloud alternatives? (lemmy.ca)

I decided to try Nextcloud after not using it for 10 years, and after testing it a bit I find myself turned off by the email (and other profile options) being visible to "everyone" by default.

I found how to disable the profile by default : email still visible Hide the email in profile settings of user manualy : still visible completely remove email : no notifications

In addition to that, from what I understand, even if I change the default setting to private the other profile options, they are automatically shared with anyone you connect to the Talk app?? I was really hoping to try it out, but that's another turnoff.

It does not seem to be a problem to most users so they have not done anything since 2019 about it (from the github issues and forum threads I found). It is an instant turnoff to me, I am questionning using it only for myself and use something else to share with family.... if you have a solution for the user info privacy, I am all ears.

I just want a multiuser file sharing app that works with authentik and works with android/windows/linux. Bonus points if it does not encrypt files on the server.

TLDR : what alternatives do you have to nextcloud ?

This right here is the answer. Active Directory too, but not sure how much that costs.
