Want to replace Google Drive/iCloud - any reason not to just use a simple network share? (old.reddit.com)

I see a lot of talk here about SeaFile/NextCloud, etc. but it's unclear to me what advantages this software has over a SMB/NFS network share. Will I be missing out on any important or useful features if I just set up a network share on a home server and connect it to a VPN so I can access it from anywhere?
