@byte i'm so completely fucking done with this awful software. i can't even give allowances to the developers because this kind of embarrassing shit has been happening with their software across the several years i've been using it
@r0se given i use an external drive to hold a lot of my music production libraries anyways, i'm likely gonna migrate my ongoing projects to there, and treat cloud storage as more of an archive
@r0se@luana ah, yes i am- sorry i wasn't factoring in webdav here (that also doesn't work on my setup for super awesome reasons i have not figured out yet)
the virtual files i'm referring to are literally 0B stubs for the actual file that nextcloud resolves into a regular file on request. they're native to both windows and macOS in some capacity, but linux has no alternative for this atm
@r0se@luana minor correction on the nextcloud client: assuming you're using virtual files, the file may exist only on the server and not on the client. that said, VFS support is okay on windows, spotty as hell on macOS (it hacks the icloud VFS backend iirc), and non-existent on linux (unless you like .nextcloud stub files everywhere)
these problem likely wouldn't be solved by other solutions, but so long as it's more stable then i'd be happy
