Note: This setup is both for my android and pc Edit: For those recommending paid services and selfhosting, I don't have the money nor resources for either. Also it seams some people are confusing my android setup with my PC setup so I'll write it down. Android: Brave(movies) + Ironfox, Search: Brave + DDG, VPN: Proton ( not always on), GPay = Cash, Auth= Aegis Auth, Pass: KeepassDX, PC: Firefox= Librewolf, VPN = No VPN (VERY slow internet), Search: Searxng + DDG, Pass: KeepassXC,

I'm currently trying out OpenCloud (I think a fork of OwnCloud, where Nextcloud was forked from). It's working fine on PC where I had syncing issues with Nexcloud as well. I also host a syncthing server for the few things I really want to have in sync for all my devices (mostly my Obsidian Vault). It's been really reliable, especially compared to other solutions I tried out

I didn't mention syncthing, but I also use it for my obsidian vault and other small files that I want backed up. I think my ebooks are on there too. But what I'm really using nextcloud for is to offload large files so that my phone storage doesn't fill up -- but keep my files where I can easily download them when i want. Primarily audio books.

Also, my audio book player is not great for finding files when there are many. (Smart Audio Player) so I can only keep a handful but can easily download anything I'm missing from local storage.
