What are you on about?
Unless you're the admin, using nextcloud involves nothing more complicated than google drive or dropbox.
I have half a dozen "normies" on my instance as users, and they figure it out just fine.

Sure, but if they keep trying to go bigger, they WILL hit a ceiling. And they have yet to show a willingness to go smaller with a subsequent project when one ends up too big to pay for itself.
Squenix does not seem to know how to match a budget to the size of the market that actually exists, and only ever goes smaller in scope when something is a "side project" adjacent to a main product.
And the signs that they are finally starting to make the same mistake with FF are beginning to show.
Intergrade was not as big as main FF installments, but it was well received by a lot of players. As a result they immediately scaled up Rebirth to be as big, or bigger, than anything they've done. And lo and behold, players coming from Intergrade love it, but it didn't magically mean a bunch more people bought it.
I'm referring to Squenix's habit of overspending on a franchise the moment it gets traction, and then not selling enough games to recoup cost, because there was never that much demand to begin with.
If they make money on this cross-over, then ok. But as someone with zero interest in MtG, but plenty in the new Final Fantasy games, this just feels like yet another expensive marketing stunt that will not get an actual return.
They lost money on Tomb Raider and Deus Ex, because they couldn't stop themselves spending almost as much on marketing as they did development, expecting a fan base orders of magnitude larger to materialize out of thin air.
And then, instead of reducing scope to match the number of fans and thereby sales they could actually expect, they just axed the franchises.
I like the remakes, but I really wish Squenix would just stop making things weird.
Whenever they get a taste of success they immediately blow up the budget, overspend, and then blame the market for not showing interest to match.

Nextcloud Office (aka Collabora) has been the nicest in my experience.
I came from google drive. I did a google takeout of my drive contents, dumped it into nextcloud, and every document so far has opened without trouble.
I love fighting games.
But holy fuck is the monetization some of the most outrageous I've seen.
It's a good come-back.
But laughing at someone and making them feel unimaginably belitteled, over something like whether they've gotten laid, wouldn't have been cool in any scenario.
"I was molested" just jolts everyone into reconsidering what just happened.
It wasn't like they were gonna go "oh sorry, our bad, have your game back".
I wonder what'll come next.
I kind of hope Deadlock will usher in an age of FPS/TPS moba-style arena shooters. But I also kinda don't.
Wine can't properly access USB devices, so even if you got iTunes installed, it wouldn't work.
I'm sceptical that a VM is out of the question, one should run on almost anything, though not necessarily perform well. I would give it an attempt, if you didn't already.
Still, it might be simplest to set up a windows install with itunes on a usb, or second partition, and boot into windows only when you need to.
