NextCloud is a suite of client server software for creating and using file hosting services. It's functionally similar to Dropbox. Although NextCloud is free and open source, allowing anyone to install and operate it on a private server. NextCloud Pie makes setting up a server on a Raspberry Pi very attainable to novices like myself. It uses a GUI to set up all the different configurations that I need included, but not limited to cron job for IP changes, cert bot for security certificates, and even a couple free and open domain services, all for a computer that costs me less than $100, including the external hard drive. Last year, I sat up an own cloud server and it took me almost a week to figure out. Using NextCloud Pie, it took about an hour. If you haven't checked it out, it might be good use for new Raspberry Pi or for an old one, since you might have an extra one that's been replaced by a Pi 4. Thanks for excellent podcast, Josh. All right, so Bill, there you go. You're looking (20/46)
