Any time nextcloud comes up, I have to hype it a bit. It was the first self-hosted service I ran, and the beginning of a journey that has led me to spending more time on my own websites than most others combined. It's my personal utility knife. It's my news site. It's my music streaming service. It's my webmail. It's my online notes. It's my office suite. It's my password manager. It's my tool for keeping my home PC and my travel PC synchronised and backed up.
The best part is I don't need to ask permission. It's libre software running on hardware I own. I didn't do it this way, but my asustor Nas allows nextcloud to be installed with one click, so non technical people could run their own home nextcloud quite easily. For others, there are hosts that'll run your nextcloud instance for you and they don't make money on your data, they make money from you paying them.
Imo some of the best FLOSS has to offer.
