When I checked half a year ago memories (with the nc ecosystem) was still ahead in terms of features (gallery specific), albeit object tagging is rather crap in nc (faces better)

You could also upload directly to the filesystem and then run occ files:scan, or if the storage is mounted as external it just works.

Another method is to set your machines /etc/hosts (or equivalent) to the local IP of the instance (if the device is only on lan you can keep it, otherwise remove it after the large transfer).

Now your rounter should not send traffic to itself away, just loop it internally so it never has to go over your isps connection - so running over lan only helps if your switch is faster than your router..

1. Did you open back port request with these basic patches? If you have orders of magnitude speed improvements it would be aswesome to share!

2. You definitively don't need an entire sysadmin team to run nextcloud, in my work (large organisation) there's three instances running (for different parts/purposes of which only one is run by more than one person, and I run myself both my personal instance and for a nonprofit with ~100 persons, it's really not much work after setup (and other systems are plenty of a lot more complicated systems to set up, trust me)

Cloudflare I don't know if there are good competitors by my own experience, but some are listed here: https://european-alternatives.eu/alternative-to/cloudflare

*except email-server which although easy to add on trough stalwart or external email provider is technically not part of the nextcloud ecosystem (webmail is however)

Not zero indexing is misleading if you are comparing discrete things like GPU performance, not in the case of plotting a timeline graph. Their published stats could be seen as misleading if they only displayed a short and/or a specific timeline (excluding the latest data for example).

I thought it was the same as security keys, which are like digital, but still physical, keys. They are awesome, one just has to have two and you are set. Passkeys tied to a cloud service or device like a smartphone are a terrible alternative (comparatively), from privacy and security (as in not get locked out) standpoints. At least they use fido2 so pushing for passkeys add support for security keys at the same time..

The problem here is that you are assuming one passkey. Just like you don't get just one key for your door its risky to get only one passkey, if you are planning to use it exclusively.

Passkeys are like normal keys but for your digital life. They have many benefits over normal keys like being impossible to copy/pick while still being easy to replace (as long as you have one that works) and if used properly (with a short pin-code) someone who finds or steal your key cant log in to your virtual doors anyway. They compare even better to passwords.

Just get one for your keychain and one to put at your stationary computer at home. The only thing to remember is to add both to your account(s), which still is faster than fiddling with your password manager and/or second factors.

Passkeys are really amazing, the only thing(s) remaining is to stop confusing people with terminology, explain that you should have a pair and for services to start properly using the keys as a combined first+second factor with a pin (which you can have safely the same on all your passkeys, in contrast to passwords).

What do you mean not cross-vendor transferable? You can use any brand key that properly implements the protocol (fido2/webaunth), and replace them with any brand key. If you mean copy them, well yea that's kinda the point..

There are plenty of ways for recovery on reasonable services, sometimes they ask to set up way to many (and with multiple passkeys, recovery is only relevant if you loose ALL of your keys).

Just want to point out that if your missus had a pair of passkeys there would not have been any issue!
