It offers more than the average slightly advanced user will need.\r\n\r\n\"Breaking\" this promise with not supporting any web hoster on earth is very much ok, because nobody can know which weird things are out there.\r\n\r\nBut not even taking the attempt to tell people that they will not have a chance on the big and well-known web hosters will create bad reputation on owncloud - no on that web hosters.\r\n\r\nSure - creating such a compatibility list (or better matrix) is some work. But I think it can be mainly left to the users if some forms are provided where they can put in their experience.\r\n\r\nAnd it will save a lot of work at owncloud people, as they have a knowledge base and can stop wasting time with hopeless cases."}}
