I've been using Unison for over 15 years. I have my main desktop and 3 laptops. It has a simple GUI that shows which direction the file update will happen and lets me decide any conflicts if the same file has been modified in both places.
- sspiff 3y agoSame. I tried a bunch of alternatives over the years. Dropbox, Syncthing,... Unison is easy and consumes 0 resources in the background. It won't drain your battery scanning your folders for changes because there's more files and folders than you can get notified for by your OS. `unison -auto` on the command line is all you need to get a convenient list of changed files and whether you want to sync them. I have all my systems set up to sync with a low power mini PC that runs some other services. Hasn't ever failed and deals with lots of small files and big files and everything in between without hickups or surprises.
