It's almost private solution, as mu virtual machine is somewhere in Lithuania. I have decided to go with VPS option due to my Raspberry performance issues. It's important though, that if you have a Raspberry 4 at hand with at least 2GB RAM, you can install Nextcloud on Raspbian without issues. While the installation was successful and Nextcloud was running, unfortunatelly, Raspberry 3 have 1GB of RAM only, which isn't enough to host Raspbian, Nextcloud and MariaDB server, as MariaDB alone eats ~600MB. It's worth mentioning that I've tried installing Nextcloud on Raspberry 3 Model B at home. I've decided to install Ubuntu Server 18.04. Time4VPS is great service with very acceptable prices.

I don't have a spare machine to run it on, so I've decded to purchase a smallest and cheapest VPS I could find.
