I still don't have my NextCloud working right. I think some of it comes from not having used Docker before. On a previous Ubuntu Server setup, I felt like I got NextCloud working pretty quickly. This one has been stumping me. I have also tackled the TrueNas community, but that has not been helpful. Top rated comments are "Use TrueNas Scale and follow instructions". But none of the instructions line up! I gave up after weeks turned to months of looking at it in my limited free time. Waiting until someone with more experience can write up a more exhaustive walkthrough that matches more of the build.
I have learned more about some things since getting HexOS, such as Tailscale, which has been amazing to learn and figure out. Connecting
Next on my docket to learn is NGINX.
I'm glad I can learn some of these new skills, but it comes at a price of time. They weren't in my pocket beforehand, but getting them all to work happily together has been a beast. As soon as they launch 1.0, this is my ranking of apps to install on a fresh build.
1. Plex (just because I have the eternal license)
2. Immich (loving it lots)
3. Tailscale
4. NGINX (once I figure it out)—unless someone can give me a better idea of how to share Immich photo albums with family using proxies while also being safe online.
5. NextCloud (please be 1-click launch)
Suffice it to say that networking is not my forte, nor is TrueNas. But I now know more about it than I did before HexOS came out.
