Since quite some time I am annoyed by the Nextcloud client starting before the internet connection becomes available. That leads to a situation in which the Nextcloud Desktop Client presents a browser window with a login mask because it assumes it is disconnected.

My approach will start and manage the Nextcloud Desktop Client as a systemd user service as soon as a network connection becomes ready.

• remove Nextcloud from autostart
• tick “start with an empty session” under “Desktop Session” in System Settings
