I’m going to be switching over to Graphene OS. I also want a second cloud-based backup for my files. Next cloud seems to be the perfect solution because it’ll allow me to have all the various apps to control contacts, calendar, photos and general files. That being said, we are getting ready to move and I do not have the bandwidth to do a self-hosted server.

I tried Hertzner VPS sign up but didn’t pass their weird identification request (and honestly didn’t feel like sending pictures of my passport). What other host services are people using? I remember using the good cloud back in the day but I think that there was an app, memories?, that they didn’t support. I honestly would like to use a hosting service that actually supports nextcloud and ideally green.

Does anybody use a hosted service with next cloud that they can vouch for? Something that will allow use of all the apps so that it can basically be a Google replacement once I move to grapheneOS. Thanks.

    I use A free tier vps running Ubuntu on Oracle cloud pay as you go account. I installed #Yunohost with my own domain name pointing to the VPS public IP. Inwas running in about ten minutes.

    I am on a €8 per month, 5 users, NextCloud instance hosted by https://www.hosting.de/ . A little bit of configuration et voila.

    Half year now, on my own domain, for myself, wife and kids. They reguraly update and very stable.

    German interface though.
