The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

RIRB - Reverse Incremental Rclone Backups
Apparently I love writing wrappers around rclone (syncrclone, lfsrclone, PyFiSync, amongst others).

Two-Way Sync Client Recommendations?
The reason I ask is the best answer I can give is use my tool. I actually wrote two tools to do bona fide two-way sync with rclone. The first, PyFiSync was really written for SSH+rsync two-way sync but I later added local to rclone. However, it was more complex than needed for that and not idea. (rsync can do really stupid-efficient diff transfers which rclone cannot so I used to go out of my way to track moves and modifications)

Google Drive Sync
Context: I am the developer of a "competitor" to bisync called syncrclone. I lay out a good-faith comparison here

[Still Noob] Needing some guidance for bisync setup.
I am the author of syncrclone which can do any remotes. It has its own pros and cons. See my comparison

First time user questions / Cache / WebDAV
I am the author of another option: syncrclone. I am, of course, biased but I think it actually works better than bisync, has a more robust algorithm, and is more compatible (including with WebDAV remotes). I wrote a good-faith comparison here. It is also more advanced to use including knowing that if you use webdav, you must set compare = 'size' (but hey, now you know!).

bisync: check file check failed
Another idea. I am the author of syncrclone, a python wrapper around rclone that does bi-directional sync. It predates bisync but not the other python wrapper on which bisync is based.

Dropbox forcing "Files On-Demand" cloud storage instead of local storage
Way different experience but I wrote a bidirectional sync tool that wraps rclone and can do it to Dropbox. I use it on Dropbox and OneDrive on my super old macs. My newer ones I just use the native OneDrive client. https://github.com/Jwink3101/syncrclone

Tips on Using B2 as a sync + backup service cost effectively?
More advanced but I wrote my one bi-directional sync tool. I use my tool to keep some thing synced across multiple machines and mount for things I don’t also need locally. It’s not as svelte as how OneDrive keeps things local and remote but it works.

New rclone-based backup tool I created, rirb: reverse incremental rclone backups, which may interest some in this community
This borrows a lot of ideas (and some code) from my other major rclone tool, syncrclone.

MacOS & Dropbox in ~/Library/CloudStorage
At home, I use my own tool I built to sync but that is not user friendly really.

Best/favorite GUI wrapper for backups using rclone?
This is quite the hack when there is bisync built in or third-party tools that interface directs and will work better. One example, which I built so I am biased, is syncrclone
What are some alternatives?
When comparing PyFiSync and syncrclone you can also consider the following projects:
remote - Moved to https://github.com/labmlai/labml/tree/master/remote
siyuan - A privacy-first, self-hosted, fully open source personal knowledge management software, written in typescript and golang.
