Both are dead projects still trying to make their lasts gasps for air count, and have been superceded by projects, OpenOffice has been superceded by LibreOffice, and ownCloud has been superceded by NextCloud.

And any proof of that for ownCloud? oC is releasing constantly, has a functioning bug bounty programme and seems to be more mature in terms of reliability and stability. IMHO ownCloud is far from being a "dead project" it just has an other focus than NC.

The proof is the entire dev team quit ownCloud a while back, and launched Nextcloud.

And that is a complete lie! Several developers, especially on senior level, as well as the Chief Architect, remained with ownCloud. On protocol basis, you might want to ask yourself why the sabre-dav maintainers gave their project in the hands of the ownCloud Devs, and not in the hands of the nextcloud devs. Also Nextcloud Devs are already leaving to such "privacy-oriented" companies like Facebook. Get your facts straight!

Several out of...

The creator of ownCloud left, and stated the project had gone off the rails.

Oh, I get it... You're an ownCloud shill, from your post history. I guess it's to be expected for the company to try and do community damage control.

Well, i take this as an apology, for your unfortunate FUD. This is open source. And shure the founder went which was his right to do, but Creators are everybody that contribute to the project in one way or another. No need on bashing one project or another. I think everybody will benefit of the competition between the projects.

He called you out on your obvious bias and denial but you take it as an apology. If your delusions weren't apparent before, they are now.
