  • Agreed. I use Syncthing[1] and it's great. It just sits in the background and works like Dropbox used to. If you have a NAS or some other always-on machine it acts as a good master for syncing things.

  • nixos-config

    Nix configuration for macOS / NixOS with starter templates, step-by-step guides, and more ✨ (by dustinlyons)

  • Syncthing. It's amazing. I use it across my NixOS workstation, M1 Macbook, home lab server (acting as an "always on" folder to always fetch syncs), and my Steam Deck.

    If you use Nix it's really easy to setup: https://github.com/dustinlyons/nixos-config/blob/main/nixos/...

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • maestral

    Open-source Dropbox client for macOS and Linux

  • Worth mention the open source project Maestral: https://github.com/SamSchott/maestral

    (an unofficial Dropbox client)

  • syncthing

    Open Source Continuous File Synchronization

  • The one thing that's kept me from SyncThing is the lack of iOS integration [1]. But the changes Apple has forced on Dropbox here might make me reconsider.
