Can't believe it hasn't been mentioned yet, but Nextcloud (or Owncloud):

https://nextcloud.com/

It's basically self-hosted Dropbox, with clients for all mayor Desktop and Mobile OSes. I set it up for a little team project. Just one account, and a shared folder where people with a password could upload. I think we will move to individual accounts at some point.

But it supports much more. It has a calendar similar to Google Calendar and I've switched to it. It also has plugins for image galleries, contacts, LibreOffice in the browser, collaborative editing like EtherPad, and so on. I was very sceptical, but it is really well done.

Thank you! I was not ready to make the jump to self hosting my own Dropbox alternative until I saw what a polished program you and your team put together. Great work!

yes! I am also running this. The whole family keeps their stuff in my instance. I also keep my password database in it.

Do you expose it over the internet or access it through a VPN?

Same set up here, and it's very easy to install and use. Non-technical users have no problem using it either as the desktop and mobile sync clients are intuitive and reliable.

I have mine configured as a public website with most data protected by the inbuilt encryption, and I use EncFS directories to sync more sensitive data across machines. Some things require client-side encryption and this is easy to achieve.
