I couldn’t get an instance up and running locally to check LDAP support availability in the free version, maybe someone else can check?
Looks like you need to be running on enterprise version for that:

Looks decent, and seems a bit faster than Nextcloud - I'm interested too.
-
@marcusquinn looks like Pydio Cells is rewritten in golang and performs quite a bit faster than the previous version. I remember trying to get it working at one point and don't remember what issue I ran into. I'll maybe take another look in a bit. Prepping for an interview rn

@atridad Haha! Funny how it seems a few of us recently found this again around the same time. Was gonna request this get added and saw this from way back in 2018. would love to see this. Cubby has potential to be what I want (Nextcloud is overly bloated) buuuuut Pydio seems to check a lot and I just found it myself. Would be a great addition!

I have my issue on their github here:
https://github.com/pydio/cells/issues/331If anyone in @staff or @appdev know what might be going on, please let me know.

Repo is here: https://git.atridad.dev/alt-ron/cloudron-pydio-app
Its very experimental right now. Looks like it needs a restart once you finish the setup. Now to automate (whatever I can, anyways).
Also now I have an issue with their collabora plugin. Looks like it just comes up blank and I cannot figure out if its something I am doing, an issue with the collabora app, or an issue with the Pydio app.

OK I did some testing and found a few things:
The good:
- F A S T
- Clean UI
The bad:
- Horrible mobile app (can't even do native sharing?????)
- On the topic of the app, there is no mobile sync to be found...
- High resource usage while doing shit all
- LDAP is only on the enterprise distribution
- OnlyOffice is only on the enterprise distribution
- The Collabora integration doesn't play nice with the cloudron Collabora app
Its a cool app but fails to meet my needs. Either way I guess the code is there if anyone has an inclination to take it further.

@atridad Thanks for your efforts and testing! It’s another case of having great software and doing the mobile app as an afterthought, I guess, like so many others. Today should always be mobile first!

Absolutely, though sometimes some open source apps have started development before the 'mobile happening' so I guess that makes it more difficult to them to get on the bandwagon.
Cheers!

@girish yeah. It runs on a golang backend I think. Works alright. The mobile app isn’t quite as good as Nextcloud’s but it imo it’s better layout on the browser compared to nextcloud.
-
@girish @atridad yeah - packaged it last night. It's Pydio Cells now. This is the latest stable cells version as of last night.
It takes like 5 minutes for the first boot but after that runs fast. It has some issues with file permissions still but I'll work on that later.

Well, it has WebDAV access, so there are a few more options for mobile apps: https://pydio.com/en/docs/kb/client-applications/using-webdav-clients
