I recently noticed that my nextcloud instance was missing photos. I have the android app set to automatically upload my photos. When I need to clear up space on my phone, I make a separate backup (because I'm a paranoid SOB and hard drives are relatively cheap). I noticed that nextcloud auto upload missed about 10% of the photos. I'm not going to bash the nextcloud devs, as I recognize that I am using a free product and am owed nothing, but I'm making this post so others are aware of this risk. Apparently I'm not alone https://help.nextcloud.com/t/android-client-does-not-auto-upload-all-images/216849/14

Thank you! It seems the ongoing 3.35 version is reimplementing the auto-upload logic, so this is promising. It is still in RC stage, but hopefully will be stable soon.
