For people running #nextcloud on a home server that's exposed to the outside world, I found out something really neat.
You can mount local smb shares as folders in your nextcloud. This means you can set up your nextcloud so you can access all kinds of local fileshares remotely through a firewall.
I've got a nas for archival purposes, but it's always a pain to get files off of it. Now I can use it just like any other nextcloud folder, and without something silly like exposing a samba share to the outside world.
