Nextcloud Suite

    Nextcloud is a comprehensive, best in class cloud suite for many services. This is our main service as it has so many apps within it. Nextcloud changed my life. :)

    Many apps are currently installed within Nextcloud. I use it to automatically synchronize all my notes, phone location, tasks, files, photos, calendar, music, bookmarks, and contacts with my phone and PC's. My devices do not have any Goopple services, and Nextcloud nicely provides the private alternatives.

    Nextcloud Apps Installed:

    • Nextpod: Although you can subscribe to podcasts in News and Music app, if you want to use a more fully featured podcast player such as AntennaPod, this will synchronize your feeds.

    • Files: Safely store and edit files synchronized with all devices. You can create files and collaborate with others, but if you want to use spreadsheets, rich text, and other types of documents not seen in the create->new option, try Cryptpad.

    • Cospend: Track and settle shared expenses.

    • Contacts: Maintain and sync your contacts everywhere.

    • Calendar: Manage personal and shared schedules and allow others to make appointments with you.

    • Music: Manage and stream stations, podcasts, and your own collection of music you have on the server.

    • Mail: You will see here your ravergram.club email, but this account is currently blocked from receiving and sending out of the server. This means you can only send and receive emails to others on Ravergram with your Ravergram account.

      • You can add other mail accounts you have here to integrate with your contacts, calendar, and files. Simply add the account in settings.

    • Photos: Manage, edit, sync, and share your photo albums.

    • Talk: You can create and run voice and video calls or chat people. The best way to use this is to create a meeting and share the link with people. See this page for more details.

    • Bookmarks: Manage and sync your bookmarks on all browsers and devices

    • Deck: Manage projects of tasks on a kanban board

    • Tasks: Simple task management

    • Notes: Sync your notes to all devices and share with others

    • Maps: Build and track your personalized maps based on osm.org

    • Polls: Query many people for a preferred date or to ask other questions

    • Forms: Query people on many types of questions

    • Money. Keep track of your personal finances

    • Health: Keep track of your personal health

    • Passwords: Check Credential Management under Guides for more information.

    • Collectives: Create easily editable websites that you can share and even allow others to edit.

    • Unified Push: Used for getting notifications for certain apps, but you need Nextpush installed on your device.

    Here are apps I use on my Android phone with Nextcloud. Most are found in https://f-droid.org/, but the main Nextcloud app and Talk currently rely on Google for notifications, meaning you should install from Aurora or Google Play Store to have notifications enabled. The links to above apps should tell you about apps available for other devices and operating systems.

    • DAVx: Synchronizes contacts and calendar

    • Nextcloud: Allows access to all files

    • Nextcloud Talk

    • Nextcloud Tasks

    • Nextcloud Deck

    • Nextcloud Notes

    • PhoneTrack to track your location privately and create maps

    • Ultrasonic: To stream music on the server

    • Floccus (mobile app and browser extension) to synchronize bookmarks

    • Nextpush for push notifications if you have a degoogled phone and want notifications

    • News: This is the mobile RSS reader synced with your server account.

    The default quota space for people is 1GB, but if you want more space, simply ask me. You can store just about anything here. I will not take over your account and look at anything you put here, but if you have any doubt, you can put an additional layer of encryption around your files using something like Cryptomator or Veracrypt where you control the encryption keys. Or you can just keep those sensitive files on your own encrypted hard drives. This is the same advice I give for using any cloud storage. If you don't want anyone to have ability to reset your forgotten password, try Cryptad, but it has fewer capabilities than Nextcloud.
