Known Limitations

  • Admin server updates are NOT supported and will not work. Please only update via StartOS
  • External security checks (Requires clearnet)
  • Exercise caution when uploading large data chunks (more than a few GB) via the WebUI as they may fail. Syncing clients are the preferred method.
  • Office suites (Cryptpad is a great alternative!)
  • Federation (Requires clearnet)
  • Nextcloud Talk (LAN only, remote requires clearnet)
  • Email integration (Requires clearnet)
  • Email registration (Requires email server on StartOS)

Please feel free to comment with your experiences, tips, and reviews on the plethora of clients and integrations available on all platforms, as well as general StartOS Nextcloud discussion. There is another master thread for discussion of Nextcloud Apps.
