Been using syncthing for a year now and works great for syncing between devices. But i miss file sharing with family members that nextcloud allowed me to do. Yet i left ut because it was too bloated and every update at the time broke my instalkation. Is there something a mature and specialised as syncthing but that allows sharing between accounts?
There is also Pingvin Share X, a fork of the original Pingvin Share. It allows you to create file share links, even with an expiration set, either by duration or count of link opened.
I haven’t used it but I heard a lot of good things about copyparty.
Also, I don’t want to be that guy, but were you running Nextcloud in a container or bare metal? Nextcloud pissed me off too, but now I’m running NextcloudPi in an LXC and have had no issues so far.
Make a syncthing directory for each person you want to share with. For only a few people it’s really simple. I do this with a few different things. Each “share” can be setup with individuals or groups as you need.
Yes, but when you try to share that folder with different users on the same device it gets complicated … each user needs its own instance and it feels messy and unecessatily complicated for the end user.
OpenCloud might be an option. I plan to give it a try sometime soon, but I haven’t yet, so I have no other useful info about it other than it exists and it’s for file sharing & collaboration.
Looks like someone has forked nextcloud and created another huge beast. But looks interesting.
Similar, Nextcloud is a fork of OwnCloud, and OpenCloud is a fork of the new OwnCloud Infinite Scale.
Maybe https://getcroc.com/ ?
I use sftpgo for file sharing with others
