Ca marche.

Works better than the playstore app. I used the playstore app and when trying to access my nextcloud from the files app, it wouldn't load. Even in the app itself it would just display the spinning circle of it trying to load. If you are using E2EE, you will need to use the official app from the playstore. If your not using E2EE, then use this app extension as it works better at integrating your nextcloud account with the files app on chromebook.

Set up the extension and authenticate it against my Nextcloud server. Nextcloud says it has granted access, but does not show up as a service in ChromeOS file browser. Says 404 error. Using 2fa - maybe can't handle that?
