This Nextcloud Alternative Caught Me Off Guard

In this video, what we're going to be In this video, what we're going to be doing is checking out Cloud Rave, a doing is checking out Cloud Rave, a doing is checking out Cloud Rave, a application that I've been meaning to application that I've been meaning to application that I've been meaning to check out for quite a while. And at check out for quite a while. And at check out for quite a while. And at least this seems to be a very beautiful, least this seems to be a very beautiful, least this seems to be a very beautiful, very feature-rich way to have a file very feature-rich way to have a file very feature-rich way to have a file management server in your home lab. I am management server in your home lab. I am management server in your home lab. I am one here who's definitely very partial one here who's definitely very partial one here who's definitely very partial to Nextcloud. It is my preference, but to Nextcloud. It is my preference, but to Nextcloud. It is my preference, but that doesn't mean that my preferences that doesn't mean that my preferences that doesn't mean that my preferences can't change. Granted, this platform is can't change. Granted, this platform is can't change. Granted, this platform is specifically for files only. And specifically for files only. And specifically for files only. And admittedly, for me, this might be good admittedly, for me, this might be good admittedly, for me, this might be good as I've been switching some of the other as I've been switching some of the other as I've been switching some of the other things like I don't use Nextcloud Deck things like I don't use Nextcloud Deck things like I don't use Nextcloud Deck as much anymore. I use my as much anymore. I use my as much anymore. I use my very own project management system. very own project management system. very own project management system. Instead of using Nextcloud News, I'm Instead of using Nextcloud News, I'm Instead of using Nextcloud News, I'm using a self-hosted like NN automation using a self-hosted like NN automation using a self-hosted like NN automation for a newsletter. I love Nextcloud, but for a newsletter. I love Nextcloud, but for a newsletter. I love Nextcloud, but I am slowly replacing a lot of these I am slowly replacing a lot of these I am slowly replacing a lot of these services in that big application to a services in that big application to a services in that big application to a bunch of different really specific bunch of different really specific bunch of different really specific things. With any really nice open-source things. With any really nice open-source things. With any really nice open-source project like that, how are they making project like that, how are they making project like that, how are they making money? Let's go over here, go to money? Let's go over here, go to money? Let's go over here, go to pricing, and then we have the free pricing, and then we have the free pricing, and then we have the free community edition here, and then right community edition here, and then right community edition here, and then right here under Pro, it looks like some of here under Pro, it looks like some of here under Pro, it looks like some of the share features are locked down. So, the share features are locked down. So, the share features are locked down. So, granular permissions, prices for share granular permissions, prices for share granular permissions, prices for share links, modify delete via a share link, links, modify delete via a share link, links, modify delete via a share link, you have storage management policies, you have storage management policies, you have storage management policies, user and authentication, which it looks user and authentication, which it looks user and authentication, which it looks like they locked down OIDC, which kind like they locked down OIDC, which kind like they locked down OIDC, which kind of sucks because of sucks because of sucks because implementation like Deck is real easy to implementation like Deck is real easy to implementation like Deck is real easy to do. And it would be nice if I could just do. And it would be nice if I could just do. And it would be nice if I could just use like Pocket ID with this, but that use like Pocket ID with this, but that use like Pocket ID with this, but that is locked down, so there are some cons is locked down, so there are some cons is locked down, so there are some cons here. They have a service where you can here. They have a service where you can here. They have a service where you can self-host your own and charge people for self-host your own and charge people for self-host your own and charge people for it. And then they have some extensions

it. And then they have some extensions it. And then they have some extensions that seem to be locked down under Pro, that seem to be locked down under Pro, that seem to be locked down under Pro, including activity logs, which kind of including activity logs, which kind of including activity logs, which kind of sucks, site announcements, note sucks, site announcements, note sucks, site announcements, note selection, iOS licenses, and that's selection, iOS licenses, and that's selection, iOS licenses, and that's another thing to note. If we go over to another thing to note. If we go over to another thing to note. If we go over to products, go to their iOS application, products, go to their iOS application, products, go to their iOS application, this is going to cost you. I'm not sure this is going to cost you. I'm not sure this is going to cost you. I'm not sure how much that is in dollars. I think how much that is in dollars. I think how much that is in dollars. I think it's about a buck a month, but they do it's about a buck a month, but they do it's about a buck a month, but they do also have a desktop application, which also have a desktop application, which also have a desktop application, which they don't charge you for. And it looks they don't charge you for. And it looks they don't charge you for. And it looks like it's only a Windows client, which I like it's only a Windows client, which I like it's only a Windows client, which I mean, the lack of a Mac OS application mean, the lack of a Mac OS application mean, the lack of a Mac OS application might be a deal breaker for me, but might be a deal breaker for me, but might be a deal breaker for me, but we're still going to we're still going we're still going to we're still going we're still going to we're still going to try it out. And deploying it is to try it out. And deploying it is to try it out. And deploying it is actually pretty simple. Here we have a actually pretty simple. Here we have a actually pretty simple. Here we have a simple Docker Compose file stack, which simple Docker Compose file stack, which simple Docker Compose file stack, which we are going to pull and get into right we are going to pull and get into right we are going to pull and get into right after I think the sponsor of today's after I think the sponsor of today's after I think the sponsor of today's video, Incogni. So, here's something video, Incogni. So, here's something video, Incogni. So, here's something that's kind of unsettling. There are that's kind of unsettling. There are that's kind of unsettling. There are hundreds of data brokers out there that hundreds of data brokers out there that hundreds of data brokers out there that have your personal information, your have your personal information, your have your personal information, your name, your address, your phone number, name, your address, your phone number, name, your address, your phone number, email, and they're just selling it to email, and they're just selling it to email, and they're just selling it to whoever wants it. This is how you end up whoever wants it. This is how you end up whoever wants it. This is how you end up getting scam calls, phishing emails, and getting scam calls, phishing emails, and getting scam calls, phishing emails, and in worst-case scenarios, how data gets in worst-case scenarios, how data gets in worst-case scenarios, how data gets used for identity theft. This is why I used for identity theft. This is why I used for identity theft. This is why I use Incogni. What Incogni does is it use Incogni. What Incogni does is it use Incogni. What Incogni does is it contacts these data brokers on your contacts these data brokers on your contacts these data brokers on your behalf and sends them legal requests to behalf and sends them legal requests to behalf and sends them legal requests to remove your information. And they don't remove your information. And they don't remove your information. And they don't just do it once, they keep monitoring just do it once, they keep monitoring just do it once, they keep monitoring and sending it removal requests because and sending it removal requests because and sending it removal requests because these brokers have a habit of re-adding these brokers have a habit of re-adding these brokers have a habit of re-adding your data over time. What's really cool your data over time. What's really cool your data over time. What's really cool is their custom removal feature, so you is their custom removal feature, so you is their custom removal feature, so you can actually search for specific brokers can actually search for specific brokers can actually search for specific brokers and see if they have your data and then and see if they have your data and then and see if they have your data and then target those services directly. It puts target those services directly. It puts target those services directly. It puts you in control of exactly who has your you in control of exactly who has your you in control of exactly who has your information and who doesn't. The way I information and who doesn't. The way I information and who doesn't. The way I see it, you shouldn't have to be

see it, you shouldn't have to be see it, you shouldn't have to be findable by anyone with an internet findable by anyone with an internet findable by anyone with an internet connection. They can't harm you if they connection. They can't harm you if they connection. They can't harm you if they can't find you. So, if you're interested can't find you. So, if you're interested can't find you. So, if you're interested in it taking back your personal data in it taking back your personal data in it taking back your personal data with Incogni, use the code techut at with Incogni, use the code techut at with Incogni, use the code techut at incogni.com/techut incogni.com/techut incogni.com/techut to get 60% off your annual plan, and the to get 60% off your annual plan, and the to get 60% off your annual plan, and the link, of course, will be down below. So, link, of course, will be down below. So, link, of course, will be down below. So, definitely good service. You can see definitely good service. You can see definitely good service. You can see I've only had this spun up for about 4 I've only had this spun up for about 4 I've only had this spun up for about 4 days, and they've already gotten rid of days, and they've already gotten rid of days, and they've already gotten rid of my data on 118 different places, so that my data on 118 different places, so that my data on 118 different places, so that is super sweet. Let's get out of there. is super sweet. Let's get out of there. is super sweet. Let's get out of there. We have Proxmox here. I've spun up a We have Proxmox here. I've spun up a We have Proxmox here. I've spun up a temp temporary LXC to go ahead and test temp temporary LXC to go ahead and test temp temporary LXC to go ahead and test this out. Generally, if you're running this out. Generally, if you're running this out. Generally, if you're running Docker, I do recommend you do it in a VM Docker, I do recommend you do it in a VM Docker, I do recommend you do it in a VM or on actual hardware, but what I need or on actual hardware, but what I need or on actual hardware, but what I need to do real quick is install Docker on to do real quick is install Docker on to do real quick is install Docker on this machine. I have a nice little guide this machine. I have a nice little guide this machine. I have a nice little guide here on techut.tv if you want to learn here on techut.tv if you want to learn here on techut.tv if you want to learn how to use Docker and get it spun up for how to use Docker and get it spun up for how to use Docker and get it spun up for yourself. So, we'll just go ahead and yourself. So, we'll just go ahead and yourself. So, we'll just go ahead and give that some time. I am on a root give that some time. I am on a root give that some time. I am on a root account, so I won't need to do it, but account, so I won't need to do it, but account, so I won't need to do it, but generally after you install Docker, generally after you install Docker, generally after you install Docker, you're going to want to add your user to you're going to want to add your user to you're going to want to add your user to that Docker group. And then here, we're that Docker group. And then here, we're that Docker group. And then here, we're going to grab this get clone. So, let's going to grab this get clone. So, let's going to grab this get clone. So, let's give this a copy, head back over here, give this a copy, head back over here, give this a copy, head back over here, and then drop it on in. And then from and then drop it on in. And then from and then drop it on in. And then from there, we can CD right on into it. And there, we can CD right on into it. And there, we can CD right on into it. And we can see the files that we have there.

we can see the files that we have there. we can see the files that we have there. We have a couple different Docker We have a couple different Docker We have a couple different Docker Compose's. This one is what we're Compose's. This one is what we're Compose's. This one is what we're probably going to use. This one is for probably going to use. This one is for probably going to use. This one is for if we are running Pro. And then this one if we are running Pro. And then this one if we are running Pro. And then this one right here is for the uh file search right here is for the uh file search right here is for the uh file search functionality. It says all that info functionality. It says all that info functionality. It says all that info right here, full text search add-on, right here, full text search add-on, right here, full text search add-on, which I'm not really going to test. which I'm not really going to test. which I'm not really going to test. We're going to copy and paste the We're going to copy and paste the We're going to copy and paste the environmental variable example to just a environmental variable example to just a environmental variable example to just a .env file. And then real quick, let's .env file. And then real quick, let's .env file. And then real quick, let's check out what we got going on in here. check out what we got going on in here. check out what we got going on in here. So, Docker Compose YAML, this is the one So, Docker Compose YAML, this is the one So, Docker Compose YAML, this is the one we're going to run. Looks like we're we're going to run. Looks like we're we're going to run. Looks like we're running a few different things. We have running a few different things. We have running a few different things. We have the actual service here with all the the actual service here with all the the actual service here with all the ports. We have some default information ports. We have some default information ports. We have some default information for Postgres, cuz we are running a for Postgres, cuz we are running a for Postgres, cuz we are running a Postgres database, and uh Redis for uh Postgres database, and uh Redis for uh Postgres database, and uh Redis for uh on-memory database stuff. And then, on-memory database stuff. And then, on-memory database stuff. And then, let's check out that ENV file, see if let's check out that ENV file, see if let's check out that ENV file, see if there's anything we need to change, there's anything we need to change, there's anything we need to change, which it looks like this is just for the which it looks like this is just for the which it looks like this is just for the Pro license key. So, we don't even need Pro license key. So, we don't even need Pro license key. So, we don't even need it. Let's spin it up, shall we? Let's do it. Let's spin it up, shall we? Let's do it. Let's spin it up, shall we? Let's do it. So, Docker Compose up -d. Actually, it. So, Docker Compose up -d. Actually, it. So, Docker Compose up -d. Actually, let's just go up so we can see if let's just go up so we can see if let's just go up so we can see if there's a failure right out of the gate. there's a failure right out of the gate. there's a failure right out of the gate. And it looks like we are going to be on And it looks like we are going to be on And it looks like we are going to be on port 5212.

port 5212. port 5212. So, wait for all this to finish pulling So, wait for all this to finish pulling So, wait for all this to finish pulling here. I really wish they had a macOS here. I really wish they had a macOS here. I really wish they had a macOS desktop client, or at least a Linux desktop client, or at least a Linux desktop client, or at least a Linux client. That would be schnerzy. There it client. That would be schnerzy. There it client. That would be schnerzy. There it is. I don't see any major errors or is. I don't see any major errors or is. I don't see any major errors or anything, so we can go ahead and hit D anything, so we can go ahead and hit D anything, so we can go ahead and hit D to get out of there. And then, let's to get out of there. And then, let's to get out of there. And then, let's figure out what our IP address is with figure out what our IP address is with figure out what our IP address is with an IPA. an IPA. an IPA. And we are going to be running on the And we are going to be running on the And we are going to be running on the port 179 at 5212. So, we'll just go port 179 at 5212. So, we'll just go port 179 at 5212. So, we'll just go ahead and use this, 5212. ahead and use this, 5212. ahead and use this, 5212. Enter. And here we are. All All so here Enter. And here we are. All All so here Enter. And here we are. All All so here we are. Now, uh let's just upload we are. Now, uh let's just upload we are. Now, uh let's just upload something real quick. I have a Netbird something real quick. I have a Netbird something real quick. I have a Netbird assets folder. So, if I drag and drop assets folder. So, if I drag and drop assets folder. So, if I drag and drop that in there, look at that. Super that in there, look at that. Super that in there, look at that. Super quick. Everything automatically uploaded quick. Everything automatically uploaded quick. Everything automatically uploaded this, but it looks like if I this, but it looks like if I this, but it looks like if I double-click on it, we have the option double-click on it, we have the option double-click on it, we have the option to open it with a couple different to open it with a couple different to open it with a couple different things. Looks like we have a built-in things. Looks like we have a built-in things. Looks like we have a built-in image viewer. So, let's go always for image viewer. So, let's go always for image viewer. So, let's go always for that one. Hey, look at that. Even loads that one. Hey, look at that. Even loads that one. Hey, look at that. Even loads in the GIF nice. If I go over here to in the GIF nice. If I go over here to in the GIF nice. If I go over here to Netbird assets, look at that. It's Netbird assets, look at that. It's Netbird assets, look at that. It's loading all of the images nice and easy.

loading all of the images nice and easy. loading all of the images nice and easy. A single click doesn't open it. A double A single click doesn't open it. A double A single click doesn't open it. A double click does. Now, let's do always again. click does. Now, let's do always again. click does. Now, let's do always again. Must be by the file type. So, there we Must be by the file type. So, there we Must be by the file type. So, there we go. Now, it's all opening. go. Now, it's all opening. go. Now, it's all opening. If I hover over it, we get little If I hover over it, we get little If I hover over it, we get little slightly bigger previews or at least the slightly bigger previews or at least the slightly bigger previews or at least the full full full aspect ratio of those previews. So, that aspect ratio of those previews. So, that aspect ratio of those previews. So, that is very nice. If I go over to files, go is very nice. If I go over to files, go is very nice. If I go over to files, go new, of course, we have upload options. new, of course, we have upload options. new, of course, we have upload options. We have a new remote download, which is We have a new remote download, which is We have a new remote download, which is cool. So, you can paste and download cool. So, you can paste and download cool. So, you can paste and download links. So, that would work something links. So, that would work something links. So, that would work something like, let's go grab something. If I like, let's go grab something. If I like, let's go grab something. If I wanted to download Proxmox directly to wanted to download Proxmox directly to wanted to download Proxmox directly to it, I could probably copy this link, it, I could probably copy this link, it, I could probably copy this link, head back over here, and then paste that head back over here, and then paste that head back over here, and then paste that on in. Click okay. on in. Click okay. on in. Click okay. There we go. Task created. Let's view There we go. Task created. Let's view There we go. Task created. Let's view the task, shall we? It's processing the task, shall we? It's processing the task, shall we? It's processing processing unknown. Let's give it a processing unknown. Let's give it a processing unknown. Let's give it a click. Ah, there we go. If we click on click. Ah, there we go. If we click on click. Ah, there we go. If we click on it, looks like it's downloading. There it, looks like it's downloading. There it, looks like it's downloading. There we go. Now, it knows what it's doing. we go. Now, it knows what it's doing. we go. Now, it knows what it's doing. So, that's really cool. A real nice way So, that's really cool. A real nice way So, that's really cool. A real nice way to put in big files, just download them to put in big files, just download them to put in big files, just download them directly to this server if you would directly to this server if you would directly to this server if you would like to. It doesn't look like the actual like to. It doesn't look like the actual like to. It doesn't look like the actual progress bar is in real time. It's just progress bar is in real time. It's just progress bar is in real time. It's just kind of updating when it feels like it.

kind of updating when it feels like it. kind of updating when it feels like it. And the download is complete. So, now And the download is complete. So, now And the download is complete. So, now it's going to transfer. And it looks it's going to transfer. And it looks it's going to transfer. And it looks like we have a seeding option, too. So, like we have a seeding option, too. So, like we have a seeding option, too. So, that you might be able to use this as a that you might be able to use this as a that you might be able to use this as a torrent client. And there we go. It's torrent client. And there we go. It's torrent client. And there we go. It's done. So, if I go to my files, we will done. So, if I go to my files, we will done. So, if I go to my files, we will then have the Proxmox ISO right here. If then have the Proxmox ISO right here. If then have the Proxmox ISO right here. If I double-click on something like this, I double-click on something like this, I double-click on something like this, can't open it. So, it's just going to can't open it. So, it's just going to can't open it. So, it's just going to give me the option to download it. Now, give me the option to download it. Now, give me the option to download it. Now, let's say I wanted to share this let's say I wanted to share this let's say I wanted to share this Proxmox. If I click on this share Proxmox. If I click on this share Proxmox. If I click on this share button, button, button, we do have the option to password protect it. Um, to password protect it. Um, expire after download. So, in this case, expire after download. So, in this case, expire after download. So, in this case, we'd want to put like our instance we'd want to put like our instance we'd want to put like our instance behind a reverse proxy if we wanted to behind a reverse proxy if we wanted to behind a reverse proxy if we wanted to actually properly share this. Give this actually properly share this. Give this actually properly share this. Give this a copy and then just head on over here, a copy and then just head on over here, a copy and then just head on over here, drop that in. Look at that. We have one drop that in. Look at that. We have one drop that in. Look at that. We have one file being shared to me. So, you can file being shared to me. So, you can file being shared to me. So, you can kind of get an idea of what that that kind of get an idea of what that that kind of get an idea of what that that would look like if we put it behind a would look like if we put it behind a would look like if we put it behind a reverse proxy. So, let's get out of reverse proxy. So, let's get out of reverse proxy. So, let's get out of there and head back over here. And we there and head back over here. And we there and head back over here. And we have this on this side. So, it's going have this on this side. So, it's going have this on this side. So, it's going to organize all of our files and to organize all of our files and to organize all of our files and everything by the type. We don't have everything by the type. We don't have everything by the type. We don't have any documents, but if I go to my files, any documents, but if I go to my files, any documents, but if I go to my files, I go new. Let's say we want a new I go new. Let's say we want a new I go new. Let's say we want a new markdown file.

markdown file. markdown file. We can just call this test. We can just call this test. We can just call this test. And look at that. We have a full-fledged And look at that. We have a full-fledged And look at that. We have a full-fledged markdown editor. So, this is a test markdown editor. So, this is a test markdown editor. So, this is a test doc and it's markdown. So, I should be doc and it's markdown. So, I should be doc and it's markdown. So, I should be able to just do something like that. able to just do something like that. able to just do something like that. Save it, close it out, and now we have Save it, close it out, and now we have Save it, close it out, and now we have that test and it should appear in my that test and it should appear in my that test and it should appear in my documents. documents. documents. There it is. There it is. There it is. Double click, markdown editor, always Double click, markdown editor, always Double click, markdown editor, always very nice. Let's close that out. Okay. very nice. Let's close that out. Okay. very nice. Let's close that out. Okay. We have other stuff like shared with me. We have other stuff like shared with me. We have other stuff like shared with me. We have a trash, shared by me. If I go We have a trash, shared by me. If I go We have a trash, shared by me. If I go to connect and mount, so this is where to connect and mount, so this is where to connect and mount, so this is where we can add WebDAV accounts, the iPad or we can add WebDAV accounts, the iPad or we can add WebDAV accounts, the iPad or iOS app, and the Windows client. We have iOS app, and the Windows client. We have iOS app, and the Windows client. We have our background tasks, which we were our background tasks, which we were our background tasks, which we were running one earlier, which happened to running one earlier, which happened to running one earlier, which happened to be a remote download. Actually, before be a remote download. Actually, before be a remote download. Actually, before we dive into the admin settings, let's we dive into the admin settings, let's we dive into the admin settings, let's check out our personal settings. So, we check out our personal settings. So, we check out our personal settings. So, we can change our display name if we would can change our display name if we would can change our display name if we would like to. like to. like to. So, save that. Change your profile So, save that. Change your profile So, save that. Change your profile picture. Sweet deal. And then we have picture. Sweet deal. And then we have picture. Sweet deal. And then we have some preferences, so you can go ahead some preferences, so you can go ahead some preferences, so you can go ahead and change all that. Pretty basic stuff. and change all that. Pretty basic stuff. and change all that. Pretty basic stuff. We have our theme color and purple. View We have our theme color and purple. View We have our theme color and purple. View settings, sync to server. And then we settings, sync to server. And then we settings, sync to server. And then we have our folder click action, which is have our folder click action, which is have our folder click action, which is cool that you could select that there as cool that you could select that there as cool that you could select that there as well. Now, here we do have uh two-factor well. Now, here we do have uh two-factor well. Now, here we do have uh two-factor authentication and passkey. So, authentication and passkey. So, authentication and passkey. So, apparently enabling uh O OCID providers apparently enabling uh O OCID providers apparently enabling uh O OCID providers is specifically what's blocked off in is specifically what's blocked off in is specifically what's blocked off in their uh premium version. So, if like if their uh premium version. So, if like if their uh premium version. So, if like if I add a passkey, oh, we need a probably I add a passkey, oh, we need a probably I add a passkey, oh, we need a probably HTTPS to enable this. I'm going to go to HTTPS to enable this. I'm going to go to HTTPS to enable this. I'm going to go to NetBird proxy. We recently released a NetBird proxy. We recently released a NetBird proxy. We recently released a proxy feature, but I am working or going proxy feature, but I am working or going proxy feature, but I am working or going to release a full video on getting all to release a full video on getting all to release a full video on getting all this spun up. So, real quick, I added

this spun up. So, real quick, I added this spun up. So, real quick, I added cloud.hopkins.sh. cloud.hopkins.sh. cloud.hopkins.sh. You can see if I click configure, I just You can see if I click configure, I just You can see if I click configure, I just have this domain pointing to this have this domain pointing to this have this domain pointing to this resource resource resource resource resource resource resource on my local network for my resource on my local network for my resource on my local network for my subnet. It's real easy to set up. I'll subnet. It's real easy to set up. I'll subnet. It's real easy to set up. I'll link to NetBird's video on this if link to NetBird's video on this if link to NetBird's video on this if you're interested. So, if I go to it you're interested. So, if I go to it you're interested. So, if I go to it through here, you can see through here, you can see through here, you can see cloud.mydomain, cloud.mydomain, cloud.mydomain, we have everything still here ready to we have everything still here ready to we have everything still here ready to go. And here, if I go to the settings, I go. And here, if I go to the settings, I go. And here, if I go to the settings, I might be able to enable passkey. Uh, might be able to enable passkey. Uh, might be able to enable passkey. Uh, it's just not wanting to do it. Sad day. it's just not wanting to do it. Sad day. it's just not wanting to do it. Sad day. But, you can enable two-factor But, you can enable two-factor But, you can enable two-factor authentication here if you see fit. Now, authentication here if you see fit. Now, authentication here if you see fit. Now, from there, let's dive into the admin from there, let's dive into the admin from there, let's dive into the admin settings. So, if I go down over here, go settings. So, if I go down over here, go settings. So, if I go down over here, go to dashboard. Oh, look at that. Confirm to dashboard. Oh, look at that. Confirm to dashboard. Oh, look at that. Confirm site URL. Uh, do you want this to be the site URL. Uh, do you want this to be the site URL. Uh, do you want this to be the primary site? Sure, let's do it. So, primary site? Sure, let's do it. So, primary site? Sure, let's do it. So, here we have our trends. So, just a here we have our trends. So, just a here we have our trends. So, just a little bit has happened. We have one little bit has happened. We have one little bit has happened. We have one user and 63 files. So, you get some nice user and 63 files. So, you get some nice user and 63 files. So, you get some nice status or analytics for your actual status or analytics for your actual status or analytics for your actual instance right here. Link to their home instance right here. Link to their home instance right here. Link to their home page, some version changes, which is page, some version changes, which is page, some version changes, which is nice. But, here going through some of nice. But, here going through some of nice. But, here going through some of the settings, we have our basic the settings, we have our basic the settings, we have our basic settings. So, you could change the site settings. So, you could change the site settings. So, you could change the site name and all that. We have our URL with name and all that. We have our URL with name and all that. We have our URL with what looks to be our secondary and or what looks to be our secondary and or what looks to be our secondary and or two secondary URLs and our primary, two secondary URLs and our primary, two secondary URLs and our primary, which is the URL I just put behind the which is the URL I just put behind the which is the URL I just put behind the proxy. Announcement, which is a pro proxy. Announcement, which is a pro proxy. Announcement, which is a pro feature. Looks like you could change all feature. Looks like you could change all feature. Looks like you could change all the branding and everything like that, the branding and everything like that, the branding and everything like that, which that's cool that they don't lock which that's cool that they don't lock which that's cool that they don't lock that down. So, you could kind of brand that down. So, you could kind of brand that down. So, you could kind of brand it with like your own company or it with like your own company or it with like your own company or whatever you wanted to be. And some whatever you wanted to be. And some whatever you wanted to be. And some mobile application and settings. For the mobile application and settings. For the mobile application and settings. For the file system, you could see the max size file system, you could see the max size file system, you could see the max size for editable documents. Just a bunch of

for editable documents. Just a bunch of for editable documents. Just a bunch of pretty basic settings you'd expect out pretty basic settings you'd expect out pretty basic settings you'd expect out of a uh, file server like this. One of a uh, file server like this. One of a uh, file server like this. One thing that's worth noting is if I go thing that's worth noting is if I go thing that's worth noting is if I go over here for example, it says we have a over here for example, it says we have a over here for example, it says we have a terabyte available. The LXC I set up terabyte available. The LXC I set up terabyte available. The LXC I set up only has like 200 gigs of space. So only has like 200 gigs of space. So only has like 200 gigs of space. So there's probably somewhere to change there's probably somewhere to change there's probably somewhere to change that. Not here, but it's cool. Right that. Not here, but it's cool. Right that. Not here, but it's cool. Right here's how you change the actual file here's how you change the actual file here's how you change the actual file path names and all that. How the files path names and all that. How the files path names and all that. How the files are actually stored on the system. So are actually stored on the system. So are actually stored on the system. So you can add nodes. We have our main you can add nodes. We have our main you can add nodes. We have our main master node right here with all of these master node right here with all of these master node right here with all of these specific settings for the node. And then specific settings for the node. And then specific settings for the node. And then we have groups and user stuff. So groups we have groups and user stuff. So groups we have groups and user stuff. So groups here. Oh, this is where the storage here. Oh, this is where the storage here. Oh, this is where the storage quota is. So I would want to probably quota is. So I would want to probably quota is. So I would want to probably change this to better resemble how much change this to better resemble how much change this to better resemble how much storage I actually have on the system. storage I actually have on the system. storage I actually have on the system. So probably like 200. And then if we go So probably like 200. And then if we go So probably like 200. And then if we go back over here and give it a refresh, back over here and give it a refresh, back over here and give it a refresh, look at that. Looking a little better look at that. Looking a little better look at that. Looking a little better there. Users, so you can add your users there. Users, so you can add your users there. Users, so you can add your users here. If I create a user, pretty simple here. If I create a user, pretty simple here. If I create a user, pretty simple email, password, and user group. It email, password, and user group. It email, password, and user group. It would be cool here if you could would be cool here if you could would be cool here if you could send like an invite link or something so send like an invite link or something so send like an invite link or something so people can set their own password. Then people can set their own password. Then people can set their own password. Then we have files. So looks like bulk file we have files. So looks like bulk file we have files. So looks like bulk file editing from the admin side of things, editing from the admin side of things, editing from the admin side of things, which is cool. So you can see other which is cool. So you can see other which is cool. So you can see other people's files. You can see right now people's files. You can see right now people's files. You can see right now it's only my files cuz I'm the only it's only my files cuz I'm the only it's only my files cuz I'm the only user. But assuming you'd be able to see user. But assuming you'd be able to see user. But assuming you'd be able to see and manipulate other people's files as and manipulate other people's files as and manipulate other people's files as the admin. File blobs, shares that you the admin. File blobs, shares that you the admin. File blobs, shares that you can manage. So you can see me as this can manage. So you can see me as this can manage. So you can see me as this one user has created this share a little one user has created this share a little one user has created this share a little bit ago.

bit ago. bit ago. And then background tasks. You can see And then background tasks. You can see And then background tasks. You can see what is done, what's finished. We have a what is done, what's finished. We have a what is done, what's finished. We have a couple different pro things that I'm not couple different pro things that I'm not couple different pro things that I'm not going to get into. OAuth apps. going to get into. OAuth apps. going to get into. OAuth apps. I mean, can we do it? I mean, can we do it? I mean, can we do it? Add a new OAuth app. Why does it say on Add a new OAuth app. Why does it say on Add a new OAuth app. Why does it say on their site that it's not allowed? I their site that it's not allowed? I their site that it's not allowed? I don't feel like testing this now, but don't feel like testing this now, but don't feel like testing this now, but yeah, we got the redirects. yeah, we got the redirects. yeah, we got the redirects. So yeah, you might be able to actually So yeah, you might be able to actually So yeah, you might be able to actually do this for free, which is cool. Yeah, do this for free, which is cool. Yeah, do this for free, which is cool. Yeah, see there it is. It's weird that they see there it is. It's weird that they see there it is. It's weird that they have this under the pro edition. Oh have this under the pro edition. Oh have this under the pro edition. Oh well. well. well. And then from there of course we could And then from there of course we could And then from there of course we could go back to the home page and go and go back to the home page and go and go back to the home page and go and manipulate and do what we need to do. manipulate and do what we need to do. manipulate and do what we need to do. Now, real quick like Now, real quick like Now, real quick like I'm going to go to my proxmox and here I'm going to go to my proxmox and here I'm going to go to my proxmox and here under Windows, let's fire her up, shall under Windows, let's fire her up, shall under Windows, let's fire her up, shall we? We're going to check out this we? We're going to check out this we? We're going to check out this Windows app. Again, really hope they Windows app. Again, really hope they Windows app. Again, really hope they make one for Mac OS and Linux because make one for Mac OS and Linux because make one for Mac OS and Linux because then this might be something I can then this might be something I can then this might be something I can actually use. I am not a fan of using actually use. I am not a fan of using actually use. I am not a fan of using Windows. I prefer my good old Unix back Windows. I prefer my good old Unix back Windows. I prefer my good old Unix back end. So here it is. I'm going to resize end. So here it is. I'm going to resize end. So here it is. I'm going to resize this window a bit so we can see it this window a bit so we can see it this window a bit so we can see it better. Really the only reason why I better. Really the only reason why I better. Really the only reason why I have Windows on here is specifically have Windows on here is specifically have Windows on here is specifically for using Rufus.

for using Rufus. for using Rufus. You can see I got Rufus there ready to You can see I got Rufus there ready to You can see I got Rufus there ready to go. And that that that's about it. Every go. And that that that's about it. Every go. And that that that's about it. Every once in a while I need a Windows once in a while I need a Windows once in a while I need a Windows installation to test something. installation to test something. installation to test something. Like in my last video when I tested that Like in my last video when I tested that Like in my last video when I tested that the GPU, my dedicated Windows instance the GPU, my dedicated Windows instance the GPU, my dedicated Windows instance is specifically for making temporary is specifically for making temporary is specifically for making temporary Windows instances. All right, add drive. Windows instances. All right, add drive. Windows instances. All right, add drive. I mean it looks pretty. I mean it looks pretty. I mean it looks pretty. Do my little Netbird proxy domain there. Do my little Netbird proxy domain there. Do my little Netbird proxy domain there. And looks like we're going to And looks like we're going to And looks like we're going to authenticate it right through here. authenticate it right through here. authenticate it right through here. So we got some permissions. Let's Let's So we got some permissions. Let's Let's So we got some permissions. Let's Let's authorize the app. So mount the desktop authorize the app. So mount the desktop authorize the app. So mount the desktop client. Just going to mount directly to client. Just going to mount directly to client. Just going to mount directly to my files my files my files and we'll hit open here. So now we can and we'll hit open here. So now we can and we'll hit open here. So now we can browse for a local path. Now let's let's browse for a local path. Now let's let's browse for a local path. Now let's let's do something in home. Let's make a new do something in home. Let's make a new do something in home. Let's make a new folder called cloud r e v e. Enter. folder called cloud r e v e. Enter. folder called cloud r e v e. Enter. Select that folder. Select that folder. Select that folder. Finish. Finish. Finish. And now it should And now it should And now it should it should be looking good. So if I open it should be looking good. So if I open it should be looking good. So if I open files files files Hey, very nice. So then for like the Hey, very nice. So then for like the Hey, very nice. So then for like the Netbird assets, I should be able to Netbird assets, I should be able to Netbird assets, I should be able to right click and then view online, sync right click and then view online, sync right click and then view online, sync selected now. So that should sync up and selected now. So that should sync up and selected now. So that should sync up and we will have a little application down we will have a little application down we will have a little application down here. Buttons not wanting to work. Let's here. Buttons not wanting to work. Let's here. Buttons not wanting to work. Let's dive into the settings here. So we have dive into the settings here. So we have dive into the settings here. So we have our drive with the links under general.

our drive with the links under general. our drive with the links under general. I'm not seeing an option to like I'm not seeing an option to like I'm not seeing an option to like automatically keep everything synced and automatically keep everything synced and automatically keep everything synced and downloaded so it's available for offline downloaded so it's available for offline downloaded so it's available for offline use, which is a setting I would want. use, which is a setting I would want. use, which is a setting I would want. So, that is Cloud Rave Cloud Rave Rave So, that is Cloud Rave Cloud Rave Rave So, that is Cloud Rave Cloud Rave Rave something. For me to switch out something. For me to switch out something. For me to switch out Nextcloud for something like this, they Nextcloud for something like this, they Nextcloud for something like this, they are going to need much more when it are going to need much more when it are going to need much more when it comes to client-side stuff. Windows and comes to client-side stuff. Windows and comes to client-side stuff. Windows and iPhone is definitely a good start, but iPhone is definitely a good start, but iPhone is definitely a good start, but we're going to need a little bit more we're going to need a little bit more we're going to need a little bit more out of it, including some more options out of it, including some more options out of it, including some more options in the settings to keep everything in the settings to keep everything in the settings to keep everything synced no matter what. But, overall, synced no matter what. But, overall, synced no matter what. But, overall, when it comes to simple file management, when it comes to simple file management, when it comes to simple file management, sharing files, and things like that, the sharing files, and things like that, the sharing files, and things like that, the feature set is strong. And, this isn't feature set is strong. And, this isn't feature set is strong. And, this isn't going to be something that I'm going to going to be something that I'm going to going to be something that I'm going to use right now on a permanent basis, but use right now on a permanent basis, but use right now on a permanent basis, but it is definitely something I'm going to it is definitely something I'm going to it is definitely something I'm going to keep my eye on and see if they do add keep my eye on and see if they do add keep my eye on and see if they do add some of those features that I'm looking some of those features that I'm looking some of those features that I'm looking for.
