Just waiting for the desktop client with Windows VFS support to emerge from beta to stable.

Is it any faster than Nextcloud? I'm personally waiting until some more apps get ported to Opencloud to test it myself.

I'm starting to look at alternatives to NextCloud and ran across your post. I was curious if you were willing to answer a question about OpenCloud on Android, if possible. My primary use case for NextCloud is photo/video backup from my phone (Android). For a lot of years, I would take a photo and the NextCloud app would detect it and push to my server, without any manual intervention. This seems to be broke now and that may be a Google problem.

My question is, does this work on OpenCloud? Can I set it to automatically sync photos/videos and have them be auto-synced to my server? Not a scheduled sync, but "take a photo, app detects it, it's synced to the server"?

I think apps ATM are a bit raw. My android app - while it works, it sometimes takes time to sync it up. But eventually it syncs it up

I am one of those intrigued people with low level skills. Have circled the Nextcloud project but not yet jumped. Will hold a little longer to see what happens here, and keeping fingers crossed that a system emerges for people like me with fear of coding.
