Selfhosted

A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I hear people say that about Nextcloud often, which is part of why I haven't bothered setting it up yet.

Is there a technical reason why it's slow and clunky? Any problematic choices with how it was built?

It needs some tweaks to be snappy. The defaults are really bad.

  • change database from SQLite to a proper database like MySQL or Postgres, and configure the database server to use your memory fully
  • increase the PHP memory limit from the default (128M on many distros) to >1G, the more the better
  • install APCu in-memory cache for PHP
  • add Redis as additional cache
  • turn off the antivirus extension, if installed (ClamAV is useless)
  • use http/2 on Apache/nginx to increase performance with multiple connections

it should work with mariaDB which is faster in my experience
