I suppose yes, it is more confident and “easy” to pay a cloud provider. But we have more data than I’m willing to flush away money for cloud storage.

As such, I’m hosting Immich and am figuring out remote access options. This kind of misses the point of my question.

If cheap is what you are looking for, then yes, a wireguard running on your home server is the way to go. Instead of exposing your home-server directly to Internet, I would put it behind a cloudflare zero trust network access product (costs free).
