Vest way to host nextcloud that isn't the all in one container? (lemmy.ml)

I tried setting up the all in one container on a computer I have at home and it was a bit of a mess to get set up. Back in the day I used an ansible script to set up nextcloud and that seemed much better. Any advice or pointers?

nowadays, might be worth looking into nix flakes

tons of super performant nextcloud flakes being uploaded to github, difficulty is understanding nix, but it's worth it

I doubt most user have any need for great nc performance.

I also doubt those "super performant nextcloud flakes" are actually any faster than a plain old default nc deployment; especially for our use-cases.

Using NixOS is a good recommendation though. Just don't do flakes unless you actually understand what problem they intend to solve and how catastrophically bad they are at it.
