One option might be a free Dropbox account, if you trust Dropbox with your data. Also pCloud might be an option.
I don't personally have a privacy problem with Dropbox (or pCloud, I've used both and prefer the latter). But storage space is the problem; I'd be looking for at least 100GB which is nothing on a hard disk in my PC but not cheap online.
I have used, and indeed do use, Resilio Sync, which is a similar approach but reliant entirely on your own storage so not limited. It's not free (beer or freedom), and if I started again I'd probably look at Syncthing first, but when I set up with Resilio (or Bittorrent Sync as it was) Syncthing had serious limitations, I don't know what it is like now. I did last night set up Resilio Sync on my phone to archive photos and that seems to have worked (it took all night to catch up!), and has the advantage of not relying on home wifi. But I'm not sure it's the best option for wife-friendliness.
