I just installed @nextcloud on our VPS together with my dad, as a replacement for our Seafile server that started misbehaving a bit after an upgrade. While it took some time to figure out the nginx and docker configuration, the whole process was pretty smooth and I imagine someone who's more used to setting up such things could do it in less than an hour.
Now that we have it, there is so much cool stuff that's included: photo albums, calendars, collaborative editing, Doodle-style polls, synced bookmarks, and many more (see apps.nextcloud.com/).
So far there's just a few small things that could be improved: syncing softlinks is not supported, and history is only on a per-file basis (not a whole directory). But overall I'm really happy with the quality and feature set.

Nice.
A couple of months ago my 15-year old son installed nextcloud for me in our Linux server at home.
This was mostly for being able to use Saber [1] to write notes by hand on both Android and iPad tablets, and having the notes visible in all computers, at home and at university.
It works like a charm. I can write notes at university in the Android tablet I keep there, and then continue writing at home in my iPad. And I can read the notes from my laptop.
It just works, thanks to both nextcloud and Saber. Thanks both!

And both are free, and also rather professional. More professional than e.g. what Apple provides on an iPad or a Mac.
