Yeah, I evaluated my position since and now I’m trying to deploy Forgejo, but I’m still stuck in the IaC rabbit hole and can’t crawl out

I use NextCloud for syncing photos from my phone and sharing photo galleries with my SO. NextCloud is quite bad for viewing photos, that’s why I have the Memories plugin and app, but it’s still not perfect. I also have the Recognize plugin, but in my setup it’s been broken for a few months and I don’t have the time to fix it.

So if I replace the photo sharing functionality I could replace the NextCloud itself for file sharing with something lighter. Might even go back to SMB.

I’ve been deploying Gitea (or Forgejo, still can’t decide), but I’ve fallen into the Ansible rabbit hole and can’t get out. Also learned Terraform in the last week and I’m still on the fence about using it in my homelab. It’s nice for the cloud but I don’t think it’s as useful on-prem.

It might be time for me to make the switch, too Soo many things to selfhost and not enough time, but nextcloud had been annoying me for some time so it might get the priority
