Nextcloud asked in a poll at https://mastodon.social/@[email protected]/115095096413238457 what database its users are running. Interestingly one fifth replied they don’t know. Should people know better where their data is stored, or is it a good thing everything is running so smoothly people don’t need to know what their software stack is built upon?
@otto If it’s on a managed host for a single user NC, why should they need to know? I am pretty sure, that covers more than 18% of total users. My Friendica instance is managed and works perfectly fine, i don’t know its database either. How much you should know about your daily used hard- and software depends totally on the use-case.
