I run several Nextclouds including one for safety critical docs for several 1000 people. I know NC quite well.
Ironically, I have a snag with my personal photos syncing from my phone which will probably involve some SQL but I did try to go off piste in a way that your average user doesn't.
NC is very reliable and since a few years ago, the phone clients have stabilized nicely. The desktop clients have been pretty decent for much longer.
Across the various systems I manage I think I've seen most or at least several corner cases. My home instance has few users with a large number of files. My wife's photo collection is legendary. The instance with the safety docs involves a lot (lot) of PDFs generated by a few people on PCs, that are shared with many tablet/phone based users over variably connected links. If the docs are not there, some things are not allowed to happen.
I've got some instances behind HA Proxy and some behind whatever MS's Azure proxy offering is called. One is behind Apache only and another nginx only but they both do have quite a lot of log file watcher (OK call it an application firewall) and network traffic analysers.
Syncthing has its place but I need rather more in most of these cases and NC has a lot of modules. For example the safety useful system has rather a lot of logging for doc creation, amendment and access. My life becomes briefly rather miserable if my wife's photos are not available for posting on FB. NC has an "impersonate user" thing which cuts through quite a lot of the IT to end user confusion. You can look at their account as they see it. I also have Mesh Central ...
