Is Seafile any good? It's similar to nextcloud, but apparently faster etc. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.seafile.seadroid2&showAllReviews=true https://apps.apple.com/cn/app/seafile-pro/id639202512?l=en&platform=iphone Mobile apps both have pretty bad ratings on the app stores. What would you host for yourself, friends and family, basic dropbox functionality is all I need. I have hosted Nextcloud in the past but it's a huge program with way too many tools, apps and a complicated way to update, the end result is often a slow and not very comfortable way to use the aforementioned basic dropbox functionality.

Would self-hosting a Nextcloud instance locally without an internet connection be viable? Use case: Around 5 people need to share files over the network, collaborate on Office documents in real-time, use GitLab, and a To-do/Task management tool. Beyond the initial setup, does any of these requirements need an active Internet connection, or can we all connect to the Raspberry Pi server via Ethernet?

if I have communications with someone through the internet with a homeserver. I would inevitably give out my IP address. Is that a bad thing? In my country they don't have services like that, RTCing would be a bit sluggish using available euro servers.

Previously I used Dehydrated to request certs, but I had to change the setup and found it surprisingly hard to use certbot without it messing up my lovingly handcrafted Nginx configs. This seems to be a sane setup :)

Sadly Gitea isn't included in the official Debian repositories, but this guide is easy to follow.

and is there any detailed video about how to host it using windows 10?
