Using resilio (which is NOT open source, of course and is actually kinda abandoned) until they implement selective sync (also "cloud" files browser). This is THE feature that is the deal breaker for me to switch. No, I don't sync hundreds of gigabytes from my personal cloud to my fokken phone, or even laptop, or even work PC. Still want access to all of them on demand.
- ceeam 3y agoAnd - yes - a program like Resilio/Syncthing is the paradigm shift to how you use your computers, if you're a serious user and have more than one machine (incl. mobile devices).
- vorpalhex 3y agoMy workaround with syncthing is to have several smaller folders that I only add to devices as I want them, and a common folder across all devices. It works well enough.
- tener 3y agoYou do have ignore lists, but the UX is extra bad. OTOH resilio ate my files in certain situations, so I had to ditch it.
- xcdzvyn 3y agoYou can create multiple folders (~/Sync/everywhere, ~/Sync/phone) and share them to different devices?
- deluxeroyale 3y agoSame here, being hold hostage by resilio just waiting for it to either die or kill my files. I really need that selective sync.
- npteljes 3y agoNextcloud also works like this on the phone. Easy to access everything, but the files only get downloaded on-demand. I love it because I also auto-upload my phone pictures, downloads and video, and sync my contacts and todo with it too. And it can share any of the files via url too. Very useful. On PC, you also selectively sync folders. I dunno about access to all the files though. Definitely works in the browser, but on PC, you either sync the folder or don't.
