Grundsätzlich habe ich jetzt erstmal alles in Seafile.
Nextcloud ist leer und OpenCloud habe ich abgeschaltet und werde es wohl demnächst auch löschen.

Größte Auffälligkeit: Im Gegensatz zu OpenCloud und Nextcloud gab es nicht einen einzigen Sync-Konflikt beim hochladen (so, wie ich es auch erwarten würde).
Dazu ist das ganze noch deutlich performanter als Nextcloud. Im Grunde ist die Plattenperformance mein Limit.

#Nextcloud #OpenCloud #Seafile

I reinstalled my Seafile instance for the 999th time, and this time I have added a USB drive logo for it. It seems familiar to me. In the past, I loved using physical USB drives. Now, this will be a familiar, relatable, and nostalgic way to keep my files.

Hey #Linux folks, I'm having trouble deciding between #OpenCloud and #Seafile for our #HomeServer. It's a pretty beefy system so the overhead of each shouldn't be too much of a determining factor. I have 2 10tb hard drives that are raid1 and I have docker installed. Oh, and I installed Ubuntu Server because I'm comfortable with Ubuntu already.

My main goal is to make it easy to share and distribute files and store backups and media. I plan on adding #JellyFin at a later date for streaming.

One of the differences I noticed is that each one uses a different dbms. Not a big deal I don't think.

Thanks for any input.

Сегодня полдня воевала с отвалами Seafile на Raspberry Pi 5. Были постоянные 502 ошибки, перезапуски и обрывы соединений.
​Вскрытие показало, что MariaDB решила поиграть в современные технологии и включила io_uring по умолчанию. Но ядро малинки супер-возложило на это (EPERM). В итоге пёр бесконечный цикл падений и приветственное Connection refused в логах самого Seafile.
​Принудительно отключаэила native-aio в конфиге базы и выдала ей чуть больше памяти (innodb_buffer_pool_size=512M), благо на пятерке ресурсов хватает. Пока нормально, рулим дальше.

# В блок базы (db):
command: ["--innodb-use-native-aio=0"]
# Лечит EPERM и краши на ARM
healthcheck:
test: ["CMD", "mariadb-admin", "ping", "-h", "localhost", "--password=passwd"]

# В блок приложения (seafile):
depends_on:
db:
condition: service_healthy
# Чтобы не ломиться в базу, пока она прогревается

Why I really want #Seafile to work for me

  • A lot of users report that Seafile sync is significantly faster than #Nextcloud, especially for large libraries.
  • I genuinely like Seafile’s extended properties (metadata) feature — it feels more structured and usable compared to Nextcloud.
  • Unlike #PaperlessNGX / #Papra, I can directly edit Office files, which makes it more than just a document archive.

I’m really hoping this setup works out, because on paper it checks all the right boxes for my workflow.

Ich würde gerne meine hakelige #nextcloud-Instanz durch #seafile ersetzen und suche noch einen bezahlbaren und zuverlässigen #cloudhosting Anbieter.

Empfehlung gerne per PM (ich will ja hier kein Werbeforum produzieren).

I spun up Seafile last night to replace my bloated Nextcloud setup (which I hadn't really used beyond WebDAV for Obsidian notes & Floccus bookmark syncing).

Documentation was definitely lacking. It didn't help that Google took me to their obsolete v11 instructions instead of the current v13, and I dumped an hour or two into fighting the jank around that.

Seafile seems much less bloated.

Though I wonder if I should worry that it's developed in China?

@nele ich werfe mal #seafile in den Raum.
Thinking about migrating this devices to #guix so I have a #garudalinux (#archlinux based) and I want to migrate to #guix, problem is I need a client called #seafile and right now it doesn't exist for #guix. Its what I use to sync almost everything.
Junge ist #seafile schnell bei der Dateisynchronisation.
Also wenn man auf das ganzen Kolab-Gedöns von #Nextcloud verzichten kann und nur ne File-Cloud braucht, dann echte Empfehlung.
Mal sehen wie sich das Ganze auf Dauer schlägt.
