So I want to build a home server to use as a media server, and to back up my photos etc.
I am also currently doing an online course, and happen to spend some time at work as well as at home working on it. I don’t like using Google where I can help it, but I find google docs really useful. So I’m wondering if there’s an open source application that works essentially the same, but I could run off my own server? It would have to be web-based as I use Windows at work and can’t install new programs :/
edit: Thanks everyone for your suggestions! I’ve got quite a few leads to follow now, it should be fun!
I was curious, so I took a look at what it was using. At idle, it sits at 927.4 MB, and 0.1% of my CPU (the 7700 is only a 4 core CPU). I opened and edited a Word document on OnlyOffice (I have it connected using the Nextcloud connector). It spiked to 1GB of RAM, and momentary spikes to 35% of CPU, and then back down to 0.1-0.2% of CPU. I’d say it’s worth trying at least. Worst case scenario, you delete the Docker container if it’s unworkable.
However, I think the Community Edition is lighter than advertised.
Oh, well. Thank you for your test. I may give it a try, then.
