I’ve enough.

Last year the automatic updater was rebooting windows without any warning after the uac prompt. The problem continued for months before being fixed

This year I got an update a week. Very annoying to get the same “why u no reboot? I need updates” question every single time I turn on my PC.

Today when updating it kills explorer.exe without any confirmation and doesn’t bring it back to life.

I don’t think that their paid enterprise customers are doing the beta alpha testers like this. Is it really necessary to push nightlies to end users? It can’t be tested casually for a couple of days then pushed?

I disabled the updates check and will update the nextcloud desktop client manually every 5 years if I can remember. Added an exception to Winget so it doesn’t update it. I lost my patience.

    Just switch to Syncthing, I ditched Nextcloud years ago after many issues with both the desktop client and the server, 2 of them leading to complete data loss. It’s slow, bloated, poorly made and full of bugs.

    If you need a web based file manager you can set up Syncthing on your server and run Filebrowser or similar. As a bonus it’s like 10x faster than nextcloud to use. If you need WebDAV then SFTPGo provides that nicely.
