Interesting to learn some from your experience of having and planning respectively for cloud storage. It is something I have been thinking I may do myself one day, eg with Nextcloud. But also web site hosting myself is also something I may test in the future. Two additional aspects that I am thinking about:
1) Security. The Nextcloud or website, should be accessible from outside world – when it comes to website indeed also many other than myself. But everything else on my network, on same external IP, must absolutely not be accessed by other. I’m a litte bit afraid that I would really set it up correctly, and also any security holes that can appear. Any thoughts?
2) Backup. If I host my own cloud, I also have to figure out a backup. It can of course be external HDD/SDD etc that I have myself. But an advantage with an external cloud is that it is at another site.
Thanks for the Feedback, Henrik. We missed out on getting this in 421. We’ll remember it for sure in 422!
