Honestly, I am pretty surprised that Baikal requires that much :D It should literally take no more than 100 MB of memory and way less CPU, IMO - or did you mean the size of a VM?

In general, I agree with the sentiment - at the same time, I think the idea behind Nextcloud is to cover more use-cases at once and serve as some kind of a “extensible platform”… and honestly, it does that quite well

+1, Thunderbird’s Calendar is the best OSS calendar application out there.

I think that’s kind of the benefit of Git repositories in general; you really don’t have to do much to start contributing on any platform, really - just sign up, fork, git clone and MR (for most of them except sourcehut, really, where you use mail to send your patches in)

The barrier of entry for people that are already comfortable with Github and git in general is basically nonexistent on any of these platforms - which is a plus

Interesting - I always ran into issues with btrfs so now I am using ZFS exclusively :D
