I'm on my laptop so I thought I would elaborate on my first comment to give you things to watch out for if/when you update. I've been hosting mine with the zip file manually installed with my own Apache/PHP/MySQL/MariaDB setup for ages now without issue. It's been rock solid except for, like I said, the occasional changes required to take advantage of new features such as adding new indices to the database or installing an additional php addon. Here's the things that I noticed with updating to 28.
It seems like they've made some substantial under-the-hood changes to the user interface that shouldn't have been shipped to the "stable" channel. It's not completely broken, it "is" usable, especially after they restored my bulk move/copy button, but I still can't use the Retention app, at least last time I looked, so I've literally got daily cron scripts to check those folders for old files and delete them, then trigger an occ files:scan of the affected directories to keep the Nextcloud database in sync with the changes. This however, bypasses the built-in trash bin so I can't recover the files in the event of an issue. I actually considered rolling back to 27 for a bit, but decided against it, so if I were you, I would stick with 27 for a while and keep an ear to the ground regarding any issues people are having that are or aren't getting fixed in 28.
Thanks for the heads up, will wait for 28.0.2 as that is currently cooking.
On the Retention app thing, I got into tagging to remove old backups. Will have in the morning for how I set it up
