You gave your A and B options poor sync ratings, but I would rate them 'best', because personal filesystem sync now has many reliable options (nextcloud, syncthing, resilio). I've been using those for close to a decade now and I am absolutely satisfied with its reliability compared to Dropbox which I used before. I do not like involving commercial parties in my sync or setting up/using 3rd party-specific sync, which means my workflow which I plan to be using for a significant part of my life my change at a moments notice due to api changes, cost changes and companies going belly up. The great thing with tools that store data in a filesystem is that I don't have to!
- tonymet 6y agoi'll have to try nextcloud. My previous "owncloud" solutions were rsync and then qNap's cloud. Can you talk more about your flow, including what tools you use ? I'm mostly curious about editing text gracefully on mobile devices.
- brnt 6y agoI use Resilio, its a little easier to setup with machines that aren't your own (family, colleagues). I have a number of machines hooked up (a number of shares), and take/read notes on my phone (my personal wiki is in one of the shares, very convenient). Keeping a node online is the hardest part, I used an old phone previously, now an old laptop as a nearly-always-on-node.
