You can install syncthing-fork or nextcloud
Thanks for the info.
If you have to install it, though, developers can't count on it being available to all or even most users.
Neither are legitimate competitors to iCloud
In some instances, nextcloud is better than icloud
You're comparing on-demand-cloud with setup-your-own-server-and-configure-everything-yourself-cloud
Those are two different markets
Only a small fraction of nextcloud users setup their own servers.
Nextcloud has on-demand (if by that you mean a SaaS product)
