What's the drawback of self hosted? I've had a self-hosted instance running on a raspberry pi for a few months now, and so far it's working out great.
Honestly the only drawback is if you don't already do selfhosting, NextCloud is kind of a big undertaking. If you're already familiar with containerization and networking basics, it's very smooth.
No drawback if you have the hardware and know how to do it, but those are major obstacles for the vast majority of people who use Google Drive. Signing up for a hosted instance is much easier (and not even more expensive)
