I've gotten a bit tired of Nextcloud as of late an I'm curious it is a viable alternative. I like having Nextcloud Talk but I can live without it.

I might switch to AIO. Maybe podman if I get inspired. Bare metal is just way to hard to maintain. I could automate it with Ansible but at that point I might as well use containers.

AIO is performant and much easier to maintain. If there was a method to try to run Nextcloud in the last decade, I probably tried it, and nothing has compared to the AIO.

I've had no problems with the normal nextcloud apache container for the last couple years. I lock to a major version and let it update itself on the minors until I feel like like changing the yaml to the next major. I've gone from 24 to 30 this way without issue.

Actually, I do have to install the contacts and calendar apps from time to time but that's only when I want to use the webUI for them, caldav/carddav has always worked.

I have the docker AIO going for about a year after every other form of install exploded itself. So far so good.
