SyncThing is actually really good. The main issue is integrations. A lot of mobile apps work with Dropbox but not with decent FOSS alternatives.

- XorNot 4y agoSyncthing also has untrusted hosts support now: you can sync your files to a host you don't trust, and it keeps them encrypted on the destination.
- throw7 4y agoVery cool. Looks like it's currently marked beta/testing.
- Sakos 4y agoThe main issue is you can accidentally nuke your own source directory and it's possible to do so in non-obvious ways. This has happened to me a few times (though thankfully had backups elsewhere).
- pixelbro 4y agoSyncThing comes with a built-in feature to keep the last n versions of files around[1], for added peace of mind. https://docs.syncthing.net/users/versioning.html https://docs.syncthing.net/users/versioning.html
- slaymaker1907 4y agoIt only works though if you dedicate a separate server for sync.
