Cloud Based File Store and Sync

[der.hans]

Am 13. Mar, 2020 schwätzte Nathan (PLUGAZ) so:

moin moin Nathan,

I was going to suggest NextCloud. I know a bunch of people using it and
there were lots of happy fans at the BoF at SCaLE.

I definitely suggest NextCloud rather than OwnCloud. I also recommend
Frank's talk about why he forked his own project to make NextCloud and
interviews about it.
