Reproducible alternatives to nextcloud? (infosec.pub)

I've been running nextcloud for my family and some projects about two years now and while it's allright when it's not breaking, I've had it break twice during upgrades and once outside of an upgrade. Getting back to running again during upgrades may require that I have two instances running one after the other - which is just too much to deal with for me, I'm anxious everytime a new update arrives, even though my system does backups and updates mostly automatic (yunohost).

(I run Nixos/Guix on my own laptop and get shivers anytime I have to deal with around in debian/android/anything-unlike-nixos-or-guix. And, yes, last I checked even Nixos struggles with nextcloud - which speaks volumes about it. I run yunohost on the server because it did DNS automagically)

So my question is, what could I change to that has:

high reproducibility/easy maintenance/easy upgrades.
file sync
file sharing between users
some kind of direct link file sharing

Nice to have:

collaboration of some sort
caldav (calendar and tasks)
carddav (contacts)

Grateful for any and all inputs here. :)

Testing Opencloud docker myself but still having troubles with getting it working with my NAS

I love the fact that (until now at least) they have everything as separate services, so "stock" opencloud only does file synching tasks. Works better for me than Nextcloud the last few years.
