By the way, for those who don't want to use one of the existing providers [1] and don't want to operate their own server either: Hetzner started their Nextcloud as a service recently:

I haven't tested it yet, as I am running my Nextcloud on my own server, but I found their offer quite compelling.

Interesting. Makes sense at the low end I guess. The more expensive ones are quite similar to their dedicated servers, which gets you compute as well. So you'd be better off rolling it yourself.

yes, you can get 130TB RAID6 of 15 disks for 269 a month. But in case you need less...

Similarly, I switched from Dropbox to Seafile and have never looked back.

It supports disks, AWS API-compatible blob storage and Ceph and OpenStack Swift as storage backends.

You can also mount Seafile folders as drives using Webdav or a FUSE extension.

I highly recommend it!
