@johnnythan Jenachdem was in die Sicherung soll - Nextcloud Client und alles was gesichert werden soll da rein speichern oder entsprechende Ordner wie Desktop zusätzlich in den Client nehmen?

Könnte evtl. beides (Bilder und Backup) abdecken. Gibt es von bspw. ebenfalls Hetzner auch managed:

@johnnythan Also some round-trip latency sensitive applications (I've seen it with some ERP systems) require such setups to reduce the latency between client and server.

@johnnythan
Depends on the use case I think. Thin clients can still be suitable for things like logistics/manufacturing stations (esp. with smartcards). It can also be used for remote access scenarios as some sort of jump host.

Doesn't have to be necessarily be a shared terminal server/cluster nowadays though. There are also solutions to e.g. spin up separate VMs per user session.

Nothing worse though than handing out notebooks just to connect to some remote desktop and having to work there.
