I'm thinking seriously about getting Google out of my life, and trying NextCloud.

Looking to get a personal account through a managed provider.

Does anyone have any experience with it?

How does it compare to ownCloud?

Any hosts I should look at or avoid?

Any apps I should get for it, or avoid?

Any issues I should be aware of before I switch?

@ajsadauskas @asklemmy I've been self-hosting and also use my instance for my private IT business. From what I can tell it's built on owncloud and the the server commands use the occ command that references that codebase.
Key apps to check out:
- Memories (for photos)
- Deck (for Kanban productivity boards)
- Mastodon Integration
- Polls (Doodle Alternative)
- Forms
-Appointments
- Talk (May need a high-end signaling server but can replace Google Meetup/Teams/Zoom/Slack)
