That's because Syncthing is a different beast. If you want something closer to Dropbox, use Nextcloud, which does basically everything Dropbox does (and more) and has the simple sharing UI you're talking about.
- Daneel_ 6y agoI’ve looked at Nextcloud, however it seems to be missing a key feature for me - the ability to store files server-side only. I want a google drive / Dropbox hybrid solution, where I can keep some directories synced and others permanently on the server. Does anyone know a solution that allows me to self-host something like this?
- StavrosK 6y agoNextcloud works exactly the way you want, so you may be thinking of something different. Maybe Syncthing?
- vorpalhex 6y agoSyncthing allows you to sync some folders and not others.
- Daneel_ 6y agoI've looked at syncthing, however it doesn't have an iOS app. Regarding nextcloud - it only seems to do full syncronisation like dropbox does. How can I store large shared directories on the server side only? eg, my FreeNAS box has ~20TB in it, and I'd like to be able to access it as a shared directory, but obviously not sync it to my laptop.
- StavrosK 6y agoJust deselect that directory in the app on your laptop.
