I currently have an email provider who also gives me my own nextcloud account. If I were to setup my own server in a while (which I would like to do), will I be able to carry over all my things (contacts, calendar,Talk conversations, appointment pages, etc) in some easy manner?
I’ve not yet started using these things because I’m not sure if it will be too much work to shift later.
If you don’t have server access to the old installation, no. You can probably transfer everything, but you have to check for every app how to export and import data via webgui. I know it works for calendar, contacs and probably more but I don’t know about the rest. So it’ll likely work but it’s not exactly straightforward.
Okay, yeah that sounds a little tedious. I’ll think a bit more
