Why do everyone claim that Nextcloud is better then seafile?

You can now integrate SeaTable with Seafile and use SeaTable to build “applications” based on tables. SeaTable can use files from Seafile. The cool thing is that you don’t even need to write code to build applications. You can organize any kind of data directly in SeaTable.

Good to know. I was not aware of SeaTable. Will definitely check it out.

In my opinion, NextCloud’s approach to apps is a bit clumsy. As system admin has to manage more and more database tables when more and more apps are added to NextCloud. With SeaTable, no matter how many bases are created by the users, there is no extra maintenance work put on the system admin.

Agree. It reminds me a bit of Joomla back in the days but at least it is free and open source so anyone can mess around with it. I also noticed that OwnCloud is rewriting their project in Go (if I am not mistaken) but that is still heavily under development and not ready for production yet.
