I’ve self-hosted nextcloud for a while, and never really liked the experience. Many minor details I won’t remember now, some I can remember:
it being very heavy and wouldn’t run too smoothly on 1GB $5 VPS
it felt like using a bunch of different glued together software
It would flick the screen white when loading other pages
It didn’t felt too customisable other than by editing code itself
It didn’t “feel nice”. Having a bunch of modular apps, none really well designed, regarding UX.
I don’t want to shit on nextcloud too much, it’s an amazing project that covers way more stuff than my one-person project does, but tell me:
Why are you creating a dichotomy out of it being vibecoded or mindfully crafted? There is much I still want to do, but so far that’s exactly what I’ve done so far — mindfully crafted it.
How is this better than nexcloud? Specially when vibecoded rather than mindfully crafted?
