I specifically asked whether the Markdown editor is WYSIWYG, like Typora, which isn’t the same thing as MS Word WYSIWYG.


Is the Markdown editor WYSIWYG, like Typora ?


Did they homemake everything ?
No NextCloud, no OnlyOffice ?


Do you really access your data most often from home than remotely ?


Except one benefit of the datacenter is redundancy : it going offline is way less likely than your home Internet (or anything else it depends on) going down.


If the internet or anything else goes down you lose all access.
That’s also the case when your home connection or electricity goes down and you’re not on site.
If that’s not a concern, then you don’t need to self-host, you just need a desktop app.


Alright, I guess I should have rather made a post like PSA: beware of Netcup, they shut you down on suspicion of doing stuff against their ToS whether it’s actually the case or not and without giving you a warning to respond.


At the very least, you could cut off Internet access and reduce vCores to 0.5, instead of completely shutting it down and only offering the user to book 4 hours of access during business hours as if they didn’t have work too.


Yet they’re already in your home.


No I mean the post was removed.


your deleted post was the one about your current external host provider dropping you due to heavy load(they were eco friendly) right?
I did not do any of the sh*it they accuse me of. I want to be eco-friendly too. That’s one of the primary reasons why I self-host and write code.


Of course. I’m only asking because of my post being removed for apparently not following the rules.


Well, I noticed my post got moderated when I wasn’t able to reply to you, so here’s my reply :
The very first Linux server I ever stood up got whacked. I got a nastygram from my host that he had shut it down because of malicious activity against other servers. So, from their standpoint, I can understand why.
Yes, but they should warn before shutting down, give you at least a few hours to speak for yourself.


I do use NodeJS, but not NextJS, so if that’s it then I’m not concerned.
But also, if this was it, I would have received alerts way before my provider would have suspended my server because of prolonged intensive use of resources.
I concur with @poVoq@slrpnk.net’s testimony :
I actually don’t know about Collabora, but I do know that OnlyOffice uses a lot of server resources and is quite hard to set up, even when using Docker Compose.
So, currently, I’m using the desktop client with WebDAV instead.
However, you said :
So, if CryptPad provides an alternative backend for OnlyOffice, then I’ll be curious to know whether it uses less resources than OnlyOffice’s official backend, and whether there are other alternative backends.
As for Collabora, I wouldn’t recommend it, nor NextCloud in general, to be honest.
