Collaboration means file storage, document management, video conferencing, shared event calendars, and things like that. As a rule, people tend to trust personal life and business to third-party services. However, there is an option to keep it all on your own server.

We choose Nextcloud - free software for convenient scheduling and file storage.

Authentication

When creating a server, admin Nextcloud user is created with the password you've used for your primary user.

To add new users, go to the user administration panel, on the web interface of your Nextcloud.

  • WEB interface: available after SelfPrivacy server configuration, at https://cloud.YOUR.DOMAIN
  • Official application (GNU/Linux, Windows, macOS, Android, iOS)

To follow the steps below, you'll need to connect to the server via SSH with administrative rights. A basic understanding of the command line is beneficial ;)
