In this video, I walk you through how I designed my Nextcloud setup, including network topology, storage (using TrueNAS and RAID-Z2), and virtual machines running services like Pi-hole, Home Assistant, and PeerTube. I also cover installing Nextcloud step-by-step, sharing real-world tips and where I personally stumbled—so you don’t have to. Ideal for beginners and tinkerers alike! CLI commands from the video are here: https://linuxrenaissance.com/post/nextcloud/
