Do you remember when you first made the switch?

Meanwhile i am running 4 Nextcloud Instances for different NGOs and a private one just for the family.

in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻 • • •I want to retrieve my data from US clouds. Since then, I've been struggling with the setup of your software to get it working on my iPhone, iPad, MacOS, and especially on my Linux PC. With moderate success. However, I'm reading up on it 💪🏻
EDIT: Oh Joined as a user and set it up myself.

in reply to abeorch • • •All the error messages I'm posting here are the same on all devices! #iPhone, #iPad, and #Linux. Only the MacOS version starts up without any problems (which is why my login details are correct). I'm responding in several steps because the number of characters is limited here on @Mastodon ( @ivory) 🙄

in reply to abeorch • • •First step: I start the app, get a security warning, and click on “Log in.”

in reply to abeorch • • •Second step: I enter my correct login details and click on “Log in.”

in reply to abeorch • • •Step three: I get a message: Encryption.App is activated, but the keys are not initialized. Please log out and log back in (when I do this, the error message remains the same).

in reply to abeorch • • •Step four: I get the message “Access denied. status token missing” And in these four messages, I go round in circles on all devices, instances, and operating systems. I can only log in correctly in the MacOS version. Linux, iPhone, and iPad strictly refuse to do so, and I have no idea what the Nextcloud app wants from me, since I am doing what it says. The internet doesn't offer much help. In forums, I am (as so often) simply dismissed with “use the search function.”

...and I've been actively trying to fix this error for about six months now. It's important to me that these apps work properly on my iPhone and Linux, as I no longer want to use a US cloud and my Linux otherwise has no cloud connection in the EU.

in reply to Nextcloud 📱☁️💻 • • •Well, we used ownCloud on a server we controlled within an organisation I was on of the Sys Admins.
Later I did get myself a free Nextcloud account, but though it's connected on a NAS, it's not actively used.
I have a Stack account, which is a fork.
Several months ago I tested a Nextcloud environment, turned out I was only expected to do some user work and not test it.
I did give some feedback on the apps, and also again to not syncing temp files! Lock files etc. need to be synced!

Of course, we always work on our solutions and tooling to make self-hosting Nextcloud even easier to less experienced people. So your feedback is very welcome :)
