How is this FOSS if its more expensive than Nextcloud?
Edit nvm I found it
Self hostable - A user should be able to easily run Peergos on a machine in their home and get their own Peergos storage space, and social communication platform from it
Yep, it is possible, I have it, I like my privacy. A cool, safe, thing.
I wrote it's self-hostable in the header, you don't have to narrate your total lack of reading comprehension to me
No, you didn't. You said that self-hosting nextcloud is a pain in the ass.
and what follows from that, don't self-host at all? the link is part of the context of the statement, you don't get points for jumping into the replies without even reading to say something pointless
anyone who has basic familiarity with the topic or utilizes the link I provided would be able to understand I am talking about Peergos as a self-hosting solution.
Actually, I had utilized the link, thank you. I just mostly found their promotional hosting services, and nothing of self host. A lot of times people post links to projects pages on GH and that's it, so after a minute I wanted to chime in.
THEN buried on their page I found it and wanted to clarify my comment for anyone else who might be looking for the info themselves...
Now we got your douchey self in the comments being, well, a douche, and instead of maybe fixing your link to go straight for the self-host section or anything useful, you decide to just be a dick as if that's any benefit...
A more clear and concise post would say something like: While this company offers paid (and slightly more expensive) hosted solutions like Nextcloud, you also have the option to self -host and view the files here https://github.com/peergos/peergos It offers E2EE over a P2P network, which is better than NC too.
And that's it folks.
What the fuck are you on about?
I'm inducing the realization that clicking the link would have been less effort than saying inane shit, it's traditional
