DietPi

Being the beginner Linux noob that I am, I've found that Rasbian's Pixel desktop was the most user friendly GUI to get up and running and use. After some certificate challenges, I was able to install the Citrix Workspace A...

Yep, that works without putting Nextcloud into MM.

Would I be likely to run into Dietpi issues if I stop services in this way?

If I run Nextcloud is put into maintenance mode.

Is this expected behaviour? If so, why?
