Nextcloud is self-hosted - this offers obvious privacy improvements over Google Photos - I'm now 100% in control of my data. It looks like Nextcloud is capable of both those things! Nextcloud with a bunch of my photosĪll together it took me about a day to set-up and replace my Google Photos functionality with Nextcloud. My priorities are simply to have a secure web interface where I can see all my photos and videos, and automatically sync photos from my phone. I shopped around a bit for alternatives, and this seemed like: a) the easiest to set up, and b) the one with the richest ecosystem of plugins and documentation.
Nextcloud is essentially a self-hosted content management system with some collaboration and syncing stuff built in.
Today I'm going to be switching from Google Photos to open-source, self-hosted content platform Nextcloud. Over time I'm slowly migrating my digital life away from Google products and towards open-source, privacy friendly, or self-hosted versions.įollow me on Twitter for updates on this (and occasional shitposts about privacy 💩).
