Thanks for putting this together. I have been dragging my feet on self-hosting NextCloud, and now it looks like that procrastination may just work out in my favor.
One question, can I just run this on localhost and access through my local network instead of using a reverse proxy? If so, how? That's all I need, I don't use a reverse proxy now and would be fine just using a self-hosted VPN to access it when away from my private network. The docs make it seem like there is pretty stringent requirements on having to use a reverse proxy and certs, etc which was the same 'issue' I had with NextCloud. I guess I'm the minority here, but curious if anyone can help answer.
