Any good file sync server with web interface other than Nextcloud?

Oracle recently changed their free VPS allowances, taking down my Nextcloud instance. I’m moving my file sync to a local machine but was wondering if anyone had any experience with alternatives, as Nextcloud AIO was a major pain in the ass to set up last time.

I used it for sharing WIP music projects so having a web interface where I can listen to audio files from a browser was really convenient. It seems however, that all apps offering this feature are just as heavy as NC.

I tried installing cloudreve, but the web media player seems borked on firefox.

Does anyone know any good alternatives, preferably ones which can run off a single docker compose file?

ultra minimal but might do everything you need

copyparty + syncthing

This comment led me to investigating copyparty for myself. It looks good.

Do you know if you can specify existing folders?

what do you mean?

i use it in the most basic way… when I need to quickly access a folder on one my servers I cd into it, copy party, access it on my PCs browser and go, then I quit copy party

I was just wondering if I could point it to folders that already exist on my server. In particular, my Syncthing folder.

Ah yes sure you can do that.

If you install it as a simple package you just cd into the folder you want and run the command ‘copyparty’ otherwise you can simply use docker compose and set it up that way: …substack.com/…/how-to-setup-copyparty-using-dock…

there you can just point the path of your syncthing folder into the /media directory inside the docker container
