I love SyncThing, been using it to sync my programming projects between machines (desktop, laptop, other laptop…) and it’s been rock solid on a Vultr host
Huh. Can you explain that one for me? I like the idea but how does it get rid of the need of cloud services? I take it you mean running a VPS yourself?
Sure! I’ve had a cheap VPS on digitalocean for a few years, mainly just to host a few web pages for friends / family. Just found their guide to getting synching running you can pretty much follow for any server you’re running.
So tldr; I get a sync directory that’s always going to be the same on a Linux laptop, a Mac desktop, an Android phone, etc. It’s amazingly useful- and yes, I’m aware of the irony that DO is technically a cloud service (you could always take this to the next level and run a physical server on your own)
Syncthing, for me. Keep it running on a VPS, and you’ve obliterated the need for personal cloud services
Oof, this one is vital. I don’t know where I’d be without it.
