I think very few people deploy Sharepoint in house anymore.
I have entire customer's sites hosted within Sharepoint. Not the usual collaboration stuff, straight up consumer level sites. Like, huge company, 500 sites a host level. We had a lot of other customers use Sharepoint to extend their site's abilities.
For a simple share, yeah, go O365. Extend the functionality to other stuff, you need a local install.
