    If someone hides $30k in cash in their home, gets robbed

    That’s not really a comparable scenario though, is it? To be robbed of cash someone has to physically be in the same location, and physically remove an object from your safe keeping (be it a literal safe, or on your person)

    To steal crypto someone on the other side of the world can just be like “yo bro click this” and 18 seconds later its gone. Who was it? Who knows. Where are they? No idea! Not even a chance to yell out “omg help help someone help this guy is stealing my stuff” as they do it.

    As a side note, I’m not a “cash is king” type person anyway. I much prefer electronic transfers. I just prefer my electronic transfers to be real money handled by financial insitutions where its protected by laws, not magic beans.

    I run Nextcloud for this. Never understood the complaints about it, I find it hard to believe everyone’s so short of CPU power that Nextcloud is anything more than a rounding error running in the background.

    There’s half a dozen of us using it for shared calendars, files, and contacts.

    Currently around 6TB of files, a couple of hundred or so contacts in the shared contacts list, and many recurring (and one off) events.

    Been working perfectly since before Nextcloud forked from OwnCloud.

    Spotify was never anywhere near perfect.

    Radio? More like exact same 50 track curated playlist on repeat.

    Want to listen to music? Here’s Joe Rogan. Again. Don’t skip him, or we’ll automatically subscribe you to his channel.

    Enjoying something a little outside your normal 20 tracks we constantly play you? Well let’s fix that… Back to the same tiny pool of content loser.

    Couldn’t help but notice you had some money left over this month. That’s good, because the price just went up again.


  • I’ve been using Nextcloud since it forked from OwnCloud (… and used OwnCloud before that). It’s gone from a VPS, to bare metal on dedicated hosting, and now self hosted as a docker container because we’ve finally got fibre internet.

    I’ve got around 6TB or so hosted for my small business, with shared directories for different levels of file access, shared contact lists, shared calendars, and a publicly accessible area for things like email attachments (works with a Thunderbird plugin to automatically host and link large attachments with a password) and uploads from customers (they can only upload, no viewing or deleting).

    It’s incredible, and I’ve never had the issues people complain so much about. The worst I ever experienced was using snap and occasionally an automatically updated version simply wouldn’t work… So I’d just roll back to the last version and manually update a few months later when I remembered.

    Currently using the Nextcloud AIO docker image which includes Borg backups. They get stored on another disk to Nextcloud, which gets automatically backed up to Crashplan.
