Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage
Says that Apple doesn't provide a multi platform API. It doesn't provide any official supported way to access iCloud from Windows, Linux.
There's a ticket covering everything you might ever want to know:

Ask HN: Best modern file transfer/synchronization protocol?
seconding rsync and syncthing.
the server could expose an smb or nfs share, the client could mount it, and then sync to that mount.
rsync over ssh also works, if you do not want to run smb/nfs.
this is also a cool tool https://rclone.org/

Which synchronization tool are you using together with the pCloud Crypto Folder?
rclone provides a special pCloud config option, which makes the setup straight forward. rclone can encrypt the data it uploads with its own encryption but not with the pCloud encryption. Therefore it can only upload data to the unencrypted pCloud folders, not to the Crypto Folder.

All I want for Christmas is
The arkclone project impliments rclone in ArkOS to achieve cloud saves. Not yet built in to ArkOS yet, and not a lot of recent traction on the pull request to get it added, but it can be installed manually.

Platform issues which disadvantage Firefox compared to first-party browsers
My biggest gripe with Firefox on Android is that sometimes I enter a domain in the address bar, press enter and nothing happens.
This behaviour seems to be erratic and only affects a few websites, such as https://forum.syncthing.net.
Closing the tab or using a different one doesn't solve the problem. I need to force close the app to fix this.

Why are Apple Silicon VMs so different?
Syncthing has had on their roadmap for 9.5 years to support iOS but hasn’t due to lack of interest by the developers to devote the time to make it.
https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/issues/102
macOS is supported though.
And Syncthing via 3rd parties does support iOS.

Syncthing problems
I haven't been able to access https://docs.syncthing.net or https://forum.syncthing.net/ but I was able to access some of the docs via github. I think I've set it up according to the docs. The logs contain lots of messages like:

iCloud Drive silently deletes your content
Malware built into iOS makes it impossible to install Syncthing[0], which is a problem for most of the people who use iCloud tp sync their files.
