I am setting up my NAS right now, and I need some suggestions for apps that I can run on my NAS or self-host.

  • I have seen some online articles, but they are too confusing because they list too many apps for each category.

  • I want backup apps for iOS, Android, Mac and Windows. (It would be great if they could back up automatically).

  • I want to sync my calendars and contacts.

  • I want to download media like TV shows and movies. (And music, too). “Of course, only legal obtained from the internet cough.”

  • I want apps that let me access my data from anywhere.

  • I saw this cool thing where you could use a Raspberry Pi to access your NAS bios from your PC.

    I’m already on nixos, so nextcloud is not a pain anymore

    I’m fully agree on all the points you mentioned

    I run nextcloud on a es i9 with so much ram I don’t remember how much exactly, 32 or 64

    P.s. I believe the future of selfhosted cloud is based on syncthing, has some e2e encryption, and vpn integrated

      We need some more volunteers to run relays :-)

      Ed: or maybe ipv6 will solve everything one day
