On my websites I see 90-95 percents mobile traffic. There is just no desktop usage anymore.
Since Ms lost mobile game , - I can only imagine they are loosing badly now as Linux can absolute easily replace it. Can't wait for oems shipping it.

Nope. Never use telegram.
You can get banned out of the blue and just lose all the contacts.

Never touching that

Would absolutely advise against telegram. They have your phone number and you have 0 privacy. There is 0 support. If you are banned - there is nowhere to file complaint and you just lose all your contacts.

I use signal. It's not bad

Tied to your phone number. Cannot use without phone number - result is automatic 0 privacy.
Another issue - there is absolutely 0 recourse if they ban you, there is no support you can email, there Is absolutely nothing. So if you have a family group there and telegram banned you - you are out of options entirely other than switching phone number and device.
Don't touch that garbage platform with a 60ft pole.

Whatever you do - don't use telegram.

I'm sorry - I understand it's free, but this is how I feel:

Nextcloud stopped being a fast, reliable file sync tool a long time ago (I mean - was it ever? it's free thats why most people use it).
It’s become a bloated “groupware suite” full of useless Talk, Groupware, AI, and half-finished apps…
while the core sync still chokes on large folders and locks files like it’s 2015.

The Core Problem PHP-FPM and mod_php are ancient architectures - every request spins up, runs, and dies. No persistent memory, no connection reuse, and no async I/O, no coroutines, slow as molasses non scalable backend held together only with redis.
Result: slow UI, slow sync, race conditions, and constant errors. Tons of open GitHub issues about sync bugs, upgrades, and no action from nextcloud. I'm sick of it. I'm done with it and I will be very direct about it.

Comments and issues and proposed classical PHP solutions are shocking:

https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_files/big_file_upload_configuration.html#configuring-your-web-server Nextcloud suggests you up its ram to 16Gb. 16Gb Carl!

php_value upload_max_filesize 16G
php_value post_max_size 16G

What about 17Gb files Nextcloud? nogo? don't use nextcloud then? Have you ever heard of TUS?

opencloud can run circles around nextcloud now - it is written in GO, much better architecturally, long running, uses connection pooling, does not need redis to survive.

What they (nextcloud) should do: Hyperf + Swoole
Swoole turns PHP into a high-performance async server - persistent memory, connection pooling, non-blocking I/O.
Hyperf+swoole - can rival GOlang. Hyperf builds on it: native WebSockets, coroutine HTTP, and microservice-ready architecture. You get live sync, push notifications, and massive concurrency with a fraction of the resource cost. Add TUS (resumable uploads) and you finally have reliable file transfer on bad connections.

I don’t want bloat. I want reliable sync that just works. I’d rather self-host a lean, fast sync app than manage ten half-integrated apps. They need to switch to Hyperf + Swoole - and bring Dropbox-level sync to self-hosting without the pain.

Nextcloud could fix its image by: Refocusing on sync reliability and performance. Moving core services to a persistent, async engine (Swoole / hyperf, etc). Making “Nextcloud Core” modular - separate entirely from the groupware/ai/talk - I don't fucking need it. Until then, those who care about speed, concurrency, and modern PHP should look beyond the old PHP-FPM world.

Im not the only person - people are sick of this inaction:

Hey friends. I finally fired nextcloud - and so should you.

edit: wow. reddit banned me for posting a link to my (completely unmonitezed, unproductized) blog in multiple r/selfhosted threads. I bet it's related to this lemmy link

I think it really helps if you dont like !important:

@layer base, toggles;
@layer toggles {
    .wprm-print-hide-recipe-nutrition .wprm-recipe-nutrition-label-section {
        display: none;
    }
}

instead of

.wprm-print-hide-recipe-nutrition .wprm-recipe-nutrition-label-section {
    display: none !important;
}

I guess I answered my own question - I think its a neat feature and ill use it.

Do you guys already use css @layer in your code? just curious.
Do you deem a level of adoption sufficient?
