I still have my rPi from when I was running my LN node. Let me look into Nextcloud. I probably should have two then in case of hardware failure. Thanks for the tip!

One of the reasons I use Dropbox is that the data I store is scattered among 2M+ files. Even Dropbox indexing and syncing have a hard time dealing with that many files, I never looked into self-hosted solutions thinking it'd be even trickier.

What is different between Dropbox and Google storage?

I can’t speak to the complexity of hosting your own file storage service like this, first hand. However, I can say that one of the things you’re paying for with a service like Dropbox is for someone else to worry about handling hardware failure, maintaining availability and uptime, data redundancy, etc. These things are not simple to solve. IMO, anyone looking to self host their own cloud storage solution for critical data should carefully consider how to handle these issues before “going live.”
