Nextcloud was for some time my go-to selfhosted cloud solution for files and images. However, over time I started hating how sluggish it feels, slow, bloated and how my server seems to go into a rage fit whenever I try to access / download stuff from my cloud.

I'm switching to immich for images and videos but I still have the need for an app that can handle regular files, archives, etc.

The main requirement is that it must have an android app that looks nice and is easy to use. Optionally, I like the option to make a file public via url so other people can download it, but it's not required as I can just find another app for that purpose.

I came across a few similar posts on this subreddit but most of them are already a few years old and software is moving rapidly so I'm wondering if there's anything new and shiny on the market.
