    Tbh not sure how I feel about them embracing AI the way they are. I don’t mind the dictation or photo recognition, but for chatgpt and image generation you need api keys anyways.

      I agree, I am very sad to se them joining that stupid hype train. If they only use local computer aid and that is open source and does not depend on some closed and/or remote service it is fine. But all else, best to stay away from that trap. As soon it will follow the enshittification route just as Twitter and Reddit did and I suspect in a much worse way.

    I love Nextcloud and host a server for personal and a server for work. I always update personal server first to test, upgrading to 27 now, we’ll see how it goes.

    I do wish the Nextcloud team would stop re-inventing the wheel a bit and utilize other open source projects. Why create their own chat platform and not just make it with Matrix? Why create their own video conference platform and not just use Jitsi?

      I would guess that it’s because their business model is to offer support and or customization to enterprises. Full control of the stack enables this.
