@viktor @whil @nextcloud I just installed it on pikapod. Overall, it was up and running fairly easily! However, I was stumped at something trivial: the logon screen.

I was completely stumped when I saw this, wondering what my account name and password were, going to your documentation, faq, etc. Only to sheepishly realize this was the CREATE screen! While I was 'wrong', this is an easy fix with a stronger header text and putting some default 'hint text' in each field.

@viktor @whil @nextcloud @jancborchardt From the PikaPod setup, the first NextCloud screen was the 'which apps do you want' which seemed a bit odd. This was the second and totally stopped me in my tracks. ("how did I miss the account name?")

There are many possible solutions here. For example, changing the labels to be "New admin account name" and "New admin password" might do it. With a "Create account" button, etc. Just don't make it look EXACTLY like a log on screen!

@jancborchardt @viktor Wow, that was quick, Thank you! What interests me is something I'm sure interests you: how to make this truly dead simple for anyone (Although I expect your target user is a bit more sophisticated)

I'm generally happy with the PikaPods approach as it appears inexpensive (<$5/month) and was fairly easy to set up (the subdomain wasn't bad but likely hard for novices)

A local hw device is the long term goal but clearly more of a stretch to pull off
