Why are they acting like Nextcloud is an alternative to AWS?

I can’t imagine what sub-reddits they think people would willingly participate in that are paid-only. Decreasing visibility and potential participation group automatically makes those worse in most cases.

I dunno, they pretty much all work the same for me.

Yeah, I couldn’t care less what language its written in

I don’t really get the comparison to vagrant. It doesn’t seem like it feels the same role? Can distro box be used to share environments with other developers or used in CI/CD processes?

Apple didn’t have the means to decrypt the information, but it was within their ability to do (by writing code to do so.)

Happen to have a source for that? That’s nigh impossible for most encryption

Ikey being involved again doesn’t exactly fill me with confidence. Josh has been very reliable though.

Drama aside, Solus’ target userbase has always been exactly what you’re describing.

When you start talking about offline then you’re going to run into consistency issues and conflicts. How will a system automatically determine which edit to a file is correct if they were both edited offline?

I’m fairly certain Ceph is also going to be online only. You won’t be accessing your CephFS filesystems when you take your laptop offline since they’re part of the object store.

Something like Syncthing (as @Max_P@lemmy.max-p.me suggested) or some other ‘Dropbox-like’ self-hosted solution might be the way to go for what you’re doing. Even then you’ll probably only want to replicate a subset of your home directory - for example I’d skip temp and cache files that a lot of programs create.

If you want to play with Ceph just for the sake of doing so then don’t let me stop you though :)

Way, way, way overkill even if it could work. Try doing a search for ‘roaming profiles linux’ and you should find some solutions that are a better fit.
