And it failed spectacularly.

We only needed a simple form, but we wanted to be fancy, so we used “nextcloud forms”.

The docker image automatically updated the install to nextcloud 30, but the forms app requires nextcloud 29 or lower. No warning whatsoever. It’s an official app, couldn’t they wait that it was ready for NC 30 before launching it? The newsletter boasts “NC hub 9 is the best thing after sliced bread” yet i don’t see any difference both in visual or performance compared to NC hub 2

Conclusion: we made our business to rely on nextcloud forms as a signup form, but the only reason we were using it was disabled who knows how many weeks ago.

    I pretty much use NextCloud as just a storage device and nothing else. Using anything in the actual UI is just atrocious and the apps are not updated or just outright abandoned, and can’t be relied on.

      Us too, we only use it as a filelink provider for thunderbird and to host a useless survey that’s going to get filled once a quarter. That’s why nobody noticed the survey was disabled and that’s why we’re not doing multistage testing in multiple virtual machines. We are a super small company and ok with something that one day can be 3 days offline. Otherwise it would be cheaper to pay $100 to Surveymonkey and $100 to Dropbox
