Thanks mnalis for posting the fix on the Github issue thread. I had spent time fruitlessly trying the Nextcloud app settings, permissions settings, and other stuff, but nothing had any effect - auto upload would not trigger.
Under Android Settings / User & accounts / Nextcloud / Sync the options File sync was OFF! I toggled it ON and the thing started uploading photos immediately.

Now easy to migrate your data from the following services to your Nextcloud account.
Note: in all cases, the administrator has to install the corresponding app first!
- OneDrive. To be able to migrate data, the Nextcloud instance administrator also has to setup OAuth credentials with OneDrive for their server.
- Dropbox. Connecting it to your account should just work.
- Google. To be able to migrate data, the Nextcloud instance administrator also has to setup OAuth credentials with Google for their server.
