What would be a good self-hosted solution for a centralized file cloud?

Think of a Google Drive, but a centralized one; each user will be able to log to the central folder but depending on perms, will be able to perform different actions.

I tried ownCloud and Nextcloud, but it looks like they’re more oriented to replace the “traditional” (for lack of a better word) cloud providers.

I’m looking to install it on an Unraid server, I’ve been looking for a solution like that for weeks, but my Google powers are no good for things I’m not able to describe in a few words lol.

    I have no idea what you want to achieve.

    Uh… You described next cloud. Not sure what exactly you dislike about it.

    Seafile has SeaDrive which mounts like an external drive and works just like other similar services like OneDrive.

    Synology.

    Have to buy the hardware, but 1,000% the best Google Drive alternative and 100% self hosted.

    Two ideas: First, you’re describing exactly a traditional SFTP share with the same files being in a location but each user can have different permission levels. Also, samba shares does the same thing. Not sure if a modern web UI is a requirement for you though.

    Second, you could use nextcloud and just share the files, or use groups (or circles I can’t remember what they call it).
