Preserve the filesystem on the server for backups. So no opaque blocks like SeaFile.
No need for external MySQL/Postgres container. SQLite would be okay.
Currently the closest thing to fulfill these is oCIS, but it has a decomposedFS file structure which defeats the second point. Nextcloud may run with embedded SQLite, but I’m reluctant to try it again due to previous experiences (lots of bugs, sluggish, etc). Mountain Duck and FileRun are not FOSS. Filestash would be nice if it can integrate with existing Nextcloud/Owncloud clients for the on-demand syncing functionality, especially on Windows. It would be nice to have an open-source alternative to Mountain Duck, in order to use on-demand sync functionalities with a standard storage backend such as SFTP.

Your post stood out to me. Why isn’t it? Also what would you suggest? Thoughts on restic?
I use restic. Nice simple and works. Synchthing to keep files synched between phone and server. Restic for server backups.
Sftpgo is a very interesting backend + web interface if you look for something to access/copy/backup your files remotely.
