I don’t think so. Their comment seems over-generalized. Sure, most modern cars are too “sporty” now which translates to being more uncomfortable in my experience. But that doesn’t mean I’d lump Japanese cars in the same quality category as American cars.

I did not know about Warehouse. Thank you.

Do you have a domain? If you do, maybe try Nginx Proxy Manager and SFTPGo. I previously used File Browser but the developers made some fairly large breaking changes and I never went back. SFTPGo lets you add accounts easily and I have specific folder setup for sharing with friends. It has a clean interface too. If you don’t have a domain, maybe try Tailscale?
