  in Looking for a small UK/EU VM for a personal Nextcloud Comment by angstrom February 2020
• (Quote) Yes, I know, but I was just wondering about free Nextcloud services. If someone just wants a personal Nextcloud, a VPS may well be overkill and a free Nextcloud service may suffice (even if I personally have reservations about using a free s…

  in Looking for a small UK/EU VM for a personal Nextcloud Comment by angstrom February 2020
• So what's the consensus on the best free Nextcloud service? (I've always run my own ownCloud/Nextcloud, but I'm curious about the free options.)

• Personally, I also prefer Debian, but arguably, Ubuntu is more user-friendly, particularly on the desktop. I find Ubuntu Server slightly obnoxious, for example, with all of those login messages by default, but perhaps that's just me. =)

• (Quote) This is what I do. It definitely requires more work than a "ready-made solution", but I feel like I have a better oversight of the moving parts. (Quote) I guess that this would be some template offered by a provider. I find that t…

• (Quote) I wonder whether one can actually complete an order, but if yes, then this is bad. Edit: In any case, even if one can't complete an order, the site is certainly misleading, given the situation.

  in If you could not use a package manager e.g. yum/apt what which OS would you choose? Comment by angstrom January 2020
• I remember compiling 2.0.x kernels on a i486 ThinkPad with 16 MB of RAM. It wasn't super fast, but not painfully slow, either. :)

• (Quote) My two cents: I would say at least 64 MB on OpenVZ 7 and at least 128 MB on KVM, otherwise it would be too much of a pain for the user ...

• (Quote) Just curious: is the container OpenVZ 7? If so, then FreeBSD wouldn't run anyway, would it? FreeBSD has a package manager. Indeed, if I'm not mistaken, it offers a choice of two package managers. How little RAM? I think that apt/Debian can…

• @sonic, @Daniel Thanks. Yes, I was aware of OVZ6 support. I was interested in whether KernelCare supports the OVZ7 kernel. Perhaps I should have clarified this, but the topic of this thread is OVZ7. I'm still wondering, though: I can't seem to fin…
