Trying to find a good self-hosted alternative for client-sode
encrypted personal cloud. I have given Seafile a try, but it's android
app is pretty bad. It doesn't show any thumbnails of images, and it
also downloads every single file I click to view.

Im looking for something that behaves a litte more like mega.nz
Where, using the app or Web, I can view pictures and videos, and then
download them if I want.

Files being completely encrypted in the server is a must.

Have your try NextCloud? Have an app, and you can encrypt server side
and share directories with password also.

Why?

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Nextcloud doesn't encrypt file and folder names. for me, thats a show-
stopper.

Nextcloud doesn't encrypt file and folder names, even when encryption
is enabled.  for me, thats a show-stopper...

From that link: "It encrypts only the contents of files, and not
filenames and directory structures."

Based on checksums or other metadata, they can detect wether you have
a specific file in your drive - got already a strike (even though this
file was not even illegal in my country) Since it was illegal in New
Zealand

Yeah, just found the e2e encryption. It seems to only work on the app,
and not on the browser. So, still not a Mega replacement, also,
thumbnails don't seem to work on encrypted folders...
Thanks anyway. I'll stick to Mega for now...

Maybe encrypt with external tools
