[GNC] Recommendations for hosting gnucash file - Google Drive, Microsoft 365, Local server?

[Bruce Griffis]

I am running GnuCash 5.5 on my Ubuntu 24.04 desktop. I also have GnuCash 
installed on my Windows 11 laptop. Right now I just copy my most recent 
GnuCash file over to USB if I want to work on it using my laptop. I 
tried using Google Drive, but found the application hanging when using 
Google Drive under Ubuntu. Not sure if it is because my connection is 
too slow (1 Gig to my Cisco switch, 1 Gig to my router, 100 Megs across 
my carrier) or if Ubuntu has timing issues with Google Drive. I also 
have a subscription to Microsoft 365 and my Windows backups go there. 
Ubuntu backups go to an attached USB drive. althouhg I'm considering 
cloud storage for Ubuntu as well.  I've read that Ubuntu 24.04 supports 
Microsoft drive, but you may need to log in whenever you access the 
drive. Only reason I'd consider it is that my Microsoft subscription 
comes with a decent amount of cloud storage. Finally, I have a spare 
desktop under my desk I could fire up as a headless server. And I have 
an older Raspberry PI I could probably turn into a NAS and share it 
locally using Samba.

What is the current recommendation for sharing GnuCash across multiple 
PCs when it will be one user? I don't want to get too tricky. Heck, I 
could probably just share my desktop's drive locally for a low tech 
solution.
