seafile is shit because it stores your files in their own format, locking you in

nextcloud stores your files as they are

I'm trialing Seafile anyway and share your reservations about a proprietary storage format even though it has some benefits. I came across FileRun. Have you used it? Maybe a better alternative?

FileRun isn't open source though.

I think that I'll do incremental backups of my Seafile libraries using WebDAV mounts to ensure raw files are backed up and avoid relying on Seafile for restoration.
