I thought of this after a recent trip with some friends. We shared the photos when we were still in person. But sometimes we need to share a lot of photos over the internet. In the past, we have used a shared google drive directory for this. But I’d prefer a self-hosted option. There should be some sort of password protection as well (ideally per share, and no need for accounts). One should be able to both access the current files and upload new ones, just like google drive or dropbox.
I currently have FileShelter, which works for 1-to-1 sharing but not for groups. I guess something like ProjectSend would work, but it’s too complex for my usecase. I’d prefer something more lightweight since I’ll maybe use it once every few months. Also, it should be noob-friendly, and accessible using a browser.
Too much what exactly? Don’t use the functionality you don’t want.
You still have manage upgrades due security vulns in all the features you are ignoring.
Storage, RAM, CPU usage. I prefer not to have such a large piece of software running for no reason. It might seem silly, but I hate using resources for no reason. I’ll rather have 5 lightweight apps running instead of a huge one, of which I’ll only use a few parts.
This confuses me a bit, technically nextcloud is just a PHP script that only runs when you actually perform a page request.
If you don’t enable the Cron then it does even less than a normal install.
