I want to install Nextcloud on Docker, and Apache on apt. I just feel that it will make it easier to set up my certificates using Cloudflare, and make quick configuration changes. It also helps because I have many other docker containers running at the same time. (each other container will have their own certificate file, too). I don't like the 'all in one' containers, I'd prefer to just set everything up myself so I know exactly how works.

Or are there any other ways of setting it up? Apart from snap because I hate proprietary software because the whole reason I'm doing this is to get away from it.

I literally just started looking at NIX package manager this morning and I saw that Nextcloud was one of the apps available through it. I can't say if it is what you need, but it might be something to look at.

Oh yeah! Before I set up my server, I was debating whether or not I should use Nix over Debian. The reason I stuck with Debian was because it was what I am most familiar with. I will have a look into the Nix package and see how that goes. In fact, I probably don't need Docker since what isn't on Nix?

Once I set it up in a VM for testing I'll reply to this comment and see if it is a good idea
