I've got 128GB on my phone and instead of compressing images and videos to 480p I sync them to my server with immich. Same for music and movies.
I only store the apps and local info on my device. Everything that has to be stored long term sits on a cheap hdd. I can select the audiobook whenever I want to instead of in advance.
I just update. If it breaks, I read the notes. Probably the wrong way but it worked. And I use it for a long time.
To me, it was never that unstable. And since a couple of months it's very stable.
Backup first.
I've got the same problem since a month or two with another dyndns provider. That's not specific to the dydns provider. It is the router. Yet I have no idea how to fix it, and I am too lazy currently.
I run nextcloud on my machine. If there's a crack, there would be one in their hosted instance as well. There's nothing really I can do about security of it.
As you said, a free post is better than paid ads somewhere else. And you don't use it personally, that's the great part. Moreover, you use lemmy. Kudos to you
