I want to degoogle and this is one of the last steps. The free versions of other services provide too little storage so I was wondering if I can make a cloud using my raspberry pi

passepartout ( @passepartout@feddit.de ) 8•10 months agoThe most obvious answer. It is a little resource heavy though, so you would need at the very least a Pi 3, better a Pi 4.

flatbield ( @furrowsofar@beehaw.org ) English1•10 months agoThis is what I run, but I run it on my media center which is real full workstation hardware since it runs media center stuff, plus all of my home server stuff. Nice thing about next cloud is you can use it to sync contacts, calendars, todos, Joplin, as well as just the box type storage application.
taiidan ( @taiidan@slrpnk.net ) 14•10 months agoI would vote for syncthing as it can have better support if you need syncing across work firewalls. Also allows device-to-device sync, not just server-device. It’s a cool federated solution (like lemmy!).
Butterbee (She/Her) ( @Butterbee@beehaw.org ) English3•10 months agoThis is what I use to sync notes between my mobile and pc. Sync only over wifi so I don’t have to bother with internet facing security issues, and my data doesn’t end up traveling outside my wifi.
ggnoredo ( @ggnoredo@lemm.ee ) 5•10 months agoNextcloud. Do not forget to backup your data and sql db. Use mariadb or postgresql on initial setup and configure php-fpm, opcache and other tunings you may refer to documentation

Father_Redbeard ( @Father_Redbeard@lemmy.ml ) 2•10 months agoSeafile. Nextcloud runs like ass, particularly on low powered devices like the Pi.

FarraigePlaisteach ( @FarraigePlaisteach@kbin.social ) 2•10 months agoI set up SAMBA so that I don’t have to keep a copy of the content on my computer. I also don’t need an application. But, setting up the SAMBA server requires a few terminal commands and editing a text file.
Can you point me to resources for that?
i will probably go the seafile route, as it offers rclone compatibility. But I like to tinker with “bare metal” stuff.
FarraigePlaisteach ( @FarraigePlaisteach@kbin.social ) 1•9 months agoHere are some absolutely minimal notes / instructions that I refer to myself. https://nuacht.flounder.online/gemlog/2022-07-12-samba.gmi
Beyond that I recommend searching based on your OS or distribution as the commands may differ ever so slightly on the installation.
That looks great. Like an easy temporary exchange share.
Thanks.

dillydogg ( @dillydogg@lemmy.one ) 1•10 months agoIf you only want the drive part of google–meaning just files–then seafile was way faster for me than nextcloud.
Overshoot2648 ( @Overshoot2648@lemm.ee ) 1•10 months agoI’d recommend Immich if you want to replace Google Photos in particular and just a SSH/SFTP setup for saving files. A Raspberry Pi might be a bit underpowered tho.
