Looking for a Ready-to-Use Docker Compose File for OCIS or Seafile (Switching from Nextcloud AIO) (buddyverse.one)

Nextcloud (AIO) has been a nightmare 😫. I’m planning to ditch it since I don’t have the time to keep tweaking it or dealing with constant issues.

Now, I’m torn between Seafile and OwnCloud.

I was interested in trying OCIS but couldn’t find a ready-to-use Docker Compose file. If anyone has one, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Also, I’ve read concerns about how Seafile stores files. Is that still an issue?

I use Portainer to manage containers, but I’m okay with a manual setup too. I just need a ready-to-use Compose file for quick deployment.

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Found a solution. Haven't tried yet.

Not directly an issue, however I found NextCloud and OwnCloud to much bloated and not very responsive. I tried all the possible alternatives and they all had some strange drawbacks (proprietary database, chunked into some weired file format...)

Sure I could just use my nextcloud instance without all the possible add-ons, but I just wanted a simple and a reliable cloud service that just syncs my files between my devices without all the bloat.

My final argument would be that it is written in PHP... Programming language of the past ! While I'm probably wrong on this one and I do have no idea of the programming language realm and probably evolved over time, I do prefer something written in a newer more "secure" language.

So that's why I settled with syncthing. It's not a cloud service but a syncing service. It's different but has the same purpose in the end with more configuration options on how/where and when to sync between my devices.

As a final note (cauz I remembered something) 3 years ago I had a really hard time to make NextCloud work properly, via docker, with my reverse proxie (Treafik) I had to allow it manually in a configuration file and still didn't work great, but was probably my skill issues at that time :).
