How is an external server any different from cloud storage, which runs on external servers? You still don't have control over the machine. Why can't I just run this off my router?
You can run it off your router, I don't know why he keeps shilling tailscale. I don't know about your router specifically, but any non-low tier one should have the functionality (my 60€ mikrotik does, but it's horrible to set up); or you could use any old raspberry pi.
