Hi Guys. Currently, my Raspberry Pi 4 is only running Home Assistant OS, which works quite well. In the last few weeks, I have grown more and more interested in paperless ngx and Nextcloud. Do you think my pi would be able to handle home automation and some light document management simultaneously? If so, should I install a fresh version of Raspbian or let HA-OS handle the Docker containers?

Thanks for your answers, and have a wonderful day :)

    Nextcloud will be slow. To be realistic is it always slow in all hardware.

      It will be slow on the Pi, but it’s pretty darned fast on my new DIY NAS with a Ryzen 5600x so it does scale with better hardware.

          Eh, every page has a bunch of Javascript errors and logs. That’s normal. So far it hasn’t impacted my usage at all and I’ve got 450GB gigabytes stored in a Nextcloud instance that’s lasted 4-years and migrated between 3 separate machines.

            Ahaha. The current state of software development and what people accept as normal is just mind-boggling. And no, it’s not “normal” nor “ok”, it slows down things and the UI sometimes crashes with more data.

              I take it you’ve never seen the amount of crap that gets put into journalctl then. I’ve never encountered a Nextcloud crash with the amount of data I have. It could have been a deployment issue on your end. My docker containers have been running fine.
