Selfhosted
A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.
Rules:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.
-
No spam posting.
-
Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.
-
No low-effort posts. This is subjective and will largely be determined by the community member reports.

That's what I currently use, it has a fantastic and easy to use UI. It also lets you migrate your desktop license between distros, which was super helpful while I was distro hopping a bunch in the beginning lol
Is there any way for it to sync from desktop to Android immediately when a file changes on the PC?
I should add that I do use it for backups, it's a great program, but I've only ever used it for one-way scheduled syncs.
There is an option in the Folderpair for instant sync, I believe that is what you're looking for. I've never used it, as I also just do scheduled syncs
Instant sync only works for local folders it can monitor. Since it doesnt have a client on the other end, there's no way to make this happen (it would have to monitor the destination).
This would require keeping a connection open between devices, which is a high cost from a network (and especially battery) perspective.
Its a great app, I've used it for 10+ years, paid for it 2 or 3 times because it's worth it.
Ah, that makes sense. A bit aggressive for my needs. Thanks for the info!
