i personally use the nextcloud snap for such stuff ... 

self managed/hostsed cloud file space, easy to manage via the admin UI
that it brings along and thanks to the snap also a single command
installation without the need to tinker a lot ...
(and there are clients for all common OSes out there, i.e. you can use
the nextcloud andoid client to auto-upload your photos to your personal
gallery etc)
