That's exactly what it does actually and its the only thing I *can* get it to do right now. It would actually be nice if all I was doing was manually dumping files and folders, but every time i try to do that with an entire folder I just get an error. And doing it manually with all of my files is jsut so tedious it defeats the purpose.

I think a "file drop" only share is your best bet.
I dont see this option anywhere when selecting or setting up folders.
So, Nextcloud is not just a "backup". This is for a complete teamwork app. You can share files, sync your contacts and calendar from the phone (see DavX5), organize meetings, yku can use password manager, seeing and organizing photos, listen uploaded music, even track your bycicle tours on a map.
Nextcloud is written in PHP so it is fast (with memory caching it could be even faster - see: Redis).
There are apps for mobile not just Nextcloud client. See the app stores (if you have Android, see F-droid).
There are tons of plugins, addons, e.g. connect to weather service provider, Reddit or Twitter (oops: X) account etc.
💡💡💡BTW: #devs - a Nostr connector to Nextcloud should be developed too ⚡⚡⚡
Im using the web ui (nextcloud all-in-one). When sharing, there are access option.
And the mobile app
