  • freenas-iocage-nextcloud

    Script to create an iocage jail on FreeNAS for the latest Nextcloud 28 release, including Caddy, MariaDB or PostgreSQL, and Let's Encrypt

  • Nextcloud, an easy way to get started is the danb35 script

  • syncthing-android

    Wrapper of syncthing for Android.

  • Instead I’d suggest something like Syncthing or Resilio Sync which don’t require you to open any firewall ports, and still accomplishes what you want. SyncThing is free, Resilio is faster at initial connection and has good iOS clients. Both works well.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • Cryptomator

    Multi-platform transparent client-side encryption of your files in the cloud

  • And of course, there is always the option of sharing files using the public cloud, encrypting data using something like Cryptomator.
