Also, serving images from shared NFS mounts was not the best of ideas. I remember when S3 came out and the Rails attachment plugins ecosystem quickle added support; it was a godsend.

even some hacked setup with 2 way sync is better. The dumbest (but still somehow the least problem in their architecture) I saw was running [1] syncthing on few servers and just syncing everything and hoping conflicts won't happen...

Like, I did it, but I wouldn't recommend it, restarting NFS server is gnarly, HA support on OSS side is... not really there last time I checked, and overall PITA.
