A lot of the dislike for #Seafile seems to focus on its opaque server-side directory structure. But that’s just application-managed storage—if you want proper backups, you back up the entire Seafile instance, same as Paperless-ngx with its numeric filenames. Personally, I just want a responsive file-sharing app that’s light on resources and easy to maintain. That’s not how I’d describe #Nextcloud.

#Papra updated just an hour ago. Still no update on the feature I’ve been waiting for long now. Custom fields / properties. Always in backlog in their roadmap.
