Never used Nextcloud or any of the self hosted solutions so I have one question:
If you have an instance and I also have an instance of Nextcloud hosted on some local setup, can we share files with each other and do collaborative edits seamlessly? Can the instances federate?
Supposedly but I haven't got mine to work yet
https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/user_manual/en/files/federated_cloud_sharing.html
I never tried but you can both share and collab without federating so I never saw the point. Nextcloud seems great for teams and businesses but that didn't fit my use so it was overkill.
