[Question] Shared folder across devices (lemmy.ml)

I have a VPS server in the cloud that I use for wireguard. I got the idea to also use it to host a shared folder across my devices: Linux laptop and Android phone.

I started doing some research on this, and would welcome pointers.

I think SFTP would work plenty. On linux you can use rclone to mount it, and Android has many file managers that support it (personal favorite is Total Commander with the SFTP plugin)

You could also certainly host a full Nextcloud instance, but it might be a bit overkill

I was looking into Nextcloud! It was my first thought.
