> I want to be able to browse my own files from my phone or any other safe device

How much data do you have? Why not simply replicate this data between your devices?

My "office documents" are ~4.8GB, according to the file browser. I simply just have it on Syncthing and copy everything to phone/laptop/workstation/NAS.

With personal photos, PDFs and everything, that's 3-4TB. With pure documents, that's still around 100-200GB.

The thing is, I don't know what I will need at a given time so I cannot just have a subset synced. Like when some friends I am visiting abroad wanted to have pictures of my house, or of an event we did with our children, now I can browse through them live.
