2 days agoI’ve replaced my nextcloud install with copyparty… Nextcloud went tits up for me after a reboot, the database kept complaining about illegal characters. I have no idea how to solve it, after restoring a backup proved fruitless. So I dropped it. I already had a test instance of copyparty running, I just incorporated the nextcloud data folder to it.
The only thing I miss is the cookbook. But I have the json files, I think I’ll cobble together a json interpreter for the files so that I can copy the recipes into some other application.
The only thing from your list that copyparty can’t do is keep files offline. It doesn’t use a sync-ing client.
Meanwhile I play all my GOG games on my SteamDeck. Sure it runs SteamOS and Steam in a sort of Big Picture Mode, but it’s still just a Linux PC, you’re free to use whatever software on there in Desktop mode, and then you can add all the apps and games you want to the Steam launcher, and run them that way. You’re not forced to stay in Steam, nor are you forced to only buy games from Steam. You can exit Steam on the Desktop mode and still use Proton to play Windows games, but that leaves you with more overhead running than when you do it from Steam in the big picture mode.
