I can’t attest to any as I don’t use PDFs this way, but here are a few links:

All of these are self-hostable and FOSS. I’m not sure about NextCloud integration.

I think you may be thinking of LibreOffice

Yeah, it’s better if you can have the computer on all the time, but it only needs to be running when you access it.

I’m not that familiar with FreshRSS, but in general apps will only update at opening (not in the background) for most syncing operations. You may have to do more manual syncing than you would like.

It definitely works. Mastodon doesn’t have threaded conversations, so if it is complex, then it can become hard to follow.

If it’s a simple post/reply then it is not confusing at all.

I never heard of this before, but it looks similarly easy to deploy. It requires Javascript instead of Python, which is the same to me although I’m sure others will have a strong preference for one or the other. Pretty nice interface though.

Genuinely curious: What advantage would you have from running it in a docker container?

LOL well at least you know I’m not an AI. Fixing now.

I use Tailscale. It’s much simpler. Just install it on the host and client devices and everything is securely connected.

You may also be interested in Calibre Web Automated (which is similar but with more features)

There are some tweaks you can usually do on the server/host side as well. That’s particularly helpful if you use Thunderbird on multiple devices, such as desktop and phone.

Hopefully it will be even easier over time to sync settings between devices — I’d love to see filters and signatures across devices one day.

Why use a software that requires an involved workaround when there is software available that already does it?

Nothing against NextCloud, buy it’s not the only solution available, and people have different needs.

They have similar licences.

NextCloud server is AGPL 3.0

OpenCloud server is Apache 2.0

Not OP, but having files and folder structures accessible in the OS helps with a lot of tasks and interoperability.

If I want to add media files to Jellyfin, etc, I can’t just drop them into the video folder remotely because I have it mapped to a particular folder on the drive. If I want to make a copy of a large folder, I first have to mount the cloud as a “remote” drive, then do the operation from there.

It’s much easier to access files and folders outside of a database if they are needed for anything outside of the cloud service. I know that there may also be some security and efficiency factors that make a database favorable, but in terms of ease of use, it is just more effort to use a fileserver that operates through a database.

1. I like to own the stuff I buy.

2. I don’t want to pay a corporation a monthly fee to access my own data.

3. I don’t want a corporation or government to have unlimited access to my stuff.

Having come from zero knowledge, to now self-hosting for over a year, I can tell you that you just search for them one at a time. Sometimes they will make sense. Sometimes not yet.

Stick around here, ask questions, and look things up.

Great! Love this app!

Right now I’m using Jellyfin for my music server. If I ever switch back to subsonic / navidrome, then you’re my number one pick by a mile. Thank you for making this!

I’m not scrolling through the thread to police people. I’m just responding to you as one person to another. I’m certainly not trying to shut you up.

I didn’t call you or anyone else in this thread a tankie, because I actually agree with the premise that Lemmy could benefit from a more collaborative culture. I’m not identifying and harping on which political issues we disagree on here, because there are plenty of other threads on Lemmy for that.

I’m just letting you know that I honestly believe that you and I are on the same side. We agree on 90% of the most important issues in the world right now. I don’t think there is any daylight between us when it comes to Trump or unions or healthcare or LGBTQ+ or protecting online speech or most other things. I don’t consider you an enemy at all, and I hope you think the same about me. We can and should (and have) discuss when we disagree on threads related to topics where we differ.

Neglecting the majority of topics where we support one another does not benefit us, Lemmy, or the world.

No one here brought up the Democratic Party or genocide except you.

This is a post about division on Lemmy.

You actually don’t have to demonstrate that. You can choose to find common ground in the culture of the platform and save the division for matters that are important to you in the communities that discuss them. That’s up to you, friend.

I’m going to go right now into your history and upvote every comment of yours I agree with

Edit: I found a few dozen from recent weeks. We agree on more than you think. Many I’d already upvoted.

(Case in point)

Right wingers will be like, “Well he’s racist but we agree on taxes and the gays so he’s all right with me.”

Left wingers will be like, “We disagree on one of the 100 most important issues to me, therefore you are my enemy!”
