#PhoneTrack is great. I have been using it as described, on my server, for more than a year. It took me some time to quite understand how the various settings influence the granularity of the tracking, but I have arrived at a setup that is pretty much what the tracker on Google Maps can do--but without Google involved. Sharing with others (on the same server) also works well. Replacing the PhoneTrack Android app is also quite possible if desired. I have arrived on a mostly-working self-written app for this, feeding into the #Nextcloud backend.


Never lose your phone again. 🧭

#PhoneTrack for #Nextcloud lets you monitor device locations in real time: privately, securely, and on your own server.

"We do not use Google trackers on our website"

I checked with uBlock origin the day I posted that, and it was blocking 2 items from Google. Checking now I see Matomo instead, so thank you.

"we have our eye on publishing our videos on PeerTube in the future"

Why "in the future"? Tilvids confirmed they'd be happy to host you. I've offered to set up YouTube mirroring free of charge. There is no cost to you beyond giving permission, and yet I've been calling with no response for years.

"please do share an issue on GitHub"

@petrisch
Here's the thing. I don't even begrudge Nextcloud posting videos to YouTube. The part I have a problem with is that they say they're promoting decentralization, yet after all these years they refuse to post to any alternative.

Similarly, they provide no option to use @unifiedpush , but *only* allow Googles Firebase for notifications.

Using Google trackers on the website is pretty ridiculous though when such high quality alternatives exist, such as @Matomo .

They also never bother to explain WHY they continue to ignore all of these things that so obviously go against the values they supposedly stand for, Just crickets to any questions and more promotional videos / blog posts.

releases a new video / blogpost for Nextcloud Talk for #DataControl.

The blog post embeds Google trackers.

The video can *only* be watched on a Google surveillance platform.

The app depends on Google / Apple for notifications.

Yes, I received many good answers on from the #Nextcloud #community, and many more #opensource communities.

Most use the excellent #discourse software for their forums. Highly recommended!

Good tutorial in French explaining the features and benefits of Hetzner's Storage Share service, a cloud storage solution that integrates with Nextcloud, a popular open-source file management platform.

From just €4.29 per month, you can get your own Nextcloud instance as an alternative to Google, Microsoft, etc. It comes with 1 TB of storage, unlimited users and is hosted in Europe.

It's not free, but neither are the US competitors β€” it's actually cheaper than Google One (10€) or Microsoft 365 (13€).

You don't need any IT skills to install it; just create an account, pay and start using it. πŸ™‚

You can do it only for yourself or offer storage to family, friends and your community too.

I’m planning to attend the #nextcloud summit in Munich this Thursday.

The update was a success! There were some missing optional indices to add, but that was super-easy.

So I'm now feeling comfortable once again and with much gratitude for the amazing #NextCloud devs.


Currently updating from #NextCloud 31.0.4 to 31.0.5. Upgrading always makes me a little nervous because occasionally it's followed by enforced effort (e.g. updating an index, fixing a configuration or updating the PHP version).

In practice it's totally smooth most of the time.

But my brain can't help it apparently.


Digital sovereignty is crucial. Embrace Open Source and local data. #FOSS #FOSH. Move away from #bigtech. Protect data for clients, students, civilians, and yourself. #Nextcloud Hub offers office suites, storage, and conferencing. Learn Nextcloud with our courses! os-sci.com


πŸ“’ We’re excited to share that Eloy Crespo, VP of Sales & Business Development at Collabora Productivity, will be speaking at the @nextcloud Summit 2025!

Join us on June 5th in Munich as we explore how open source, on-premise solutions like #collaboraOnline are shaping the future of secure, sovereign digital workspaces β€” and how deep integrations with platforms like #Nextcloud empower organisations across Europe and beyond.

#Newsflash is a great @gnome app that supports synchronization with #NextCloud #News. The new 4.0 Beta release now works much better on my @furilabs #FLX1 phone. Especially the web view is so much smoother.

I forgot to post it here, but I found it really cool how #Nextcloud during their Hub 10 announcement livestream actively pointed out that they spend most of their time on fixing bugs and improving stability.
Like sure. That's probably what a decent amount of companies do, but it's still nice to see them point that out to the general public.
