A share and a backup. That is it.

Self-hosted file storage: what each of the usual options is actually for, and why the simple free one keeps not appearing

Ran the boring answer for six years: a share on the network and a scheduled backup off it. No web interface, no sync, no accounts.

What it cannot do is the phone, and that is the honest limit rather than a small caveat. Everything on a laptop is solved. Anything where you want a file on your phone in a cafe is not, and that is precisely the gap the suites exist to fill.
