Anyone have Dropbox replacement you really like? - I specifically don’t want to self-host - It needs to have seamless macOS integration - It needs to work for small teams - I need automated full backup to our Synology NAS Please only recommend anything you personally use and like.

I'm curious. Why not use what you already have? Your Synology can already do all that. Are you asking about Dropbox alternative strictly for the ability to share files? Store large files? Email link sharing? Sharing a folder with internal or external team members? All that can be done on the NAS.

Offsite backup in case the Synology dies. Most likely

Yes that but also when I share files I don’t want to do it over my dogshit Internet connection

Ah, now I see why you're looking for a cloud option. Although you'll still have the dogshit connection whichever cloud option you choose. Without having to self-host, Nextcloud may be the best option if privacy is high on your list. 1/

Nextcloud is a self-hosted app but there are verified SaaS providers who can set you up through their cloud options. Here's a link to see those provider partners. I'm not affiliated with or sponsored by them. I've been self-hosting Nextcloud for >5yrs. It's a great tool. nextcloud.com/partners/
