I might be a bit obtuse, but...

Why are you using Dropbox? There's plenty of free #NextCloud services out there instead, or if you are paying for #Dropbox you can self-host or pay a hosting company to host NextCloud for less than your'e already paying.

Sounds like you've got an opportunity for a solution there - a golden opportunity (NextCloud also has all the document support that Dropbox does too) - for free.

I love how customizable :gitannex: #gitAnnex is. It's scriptable! 💛

Don't like the assistant's permanent connection draining battery and you're hitting inotify limits? And you'd rather have it only sync files on WiFi not mobile? But syncing metadata is always fine and copying to the to sdcard as well?

Sure, a simple shell one-liner in a #systemd service can do that.

Hard to do with #Syncthing. #Synchronisation #FileSync

Is anybody here using #odrive for desktop file sync? It has been useful in the past for multiple client Google Drives (for example) but all channels seem a bit stale and it still needs Rosetta.

#filesync #dropbox #googledrive

Does anyone have experience with #NextCloud or #Seafile? I'm looking to move away from Dropbox, and need something that works reliably with a fairly large amount of data (1-2tb) and multi gigabyte files. Needs to work with Mac and iOS (although I think iOS can access SFTP natively through the Files app, which might be fine.)

#filesync

Need advice: What tool would you use to transfer files (and ideally application settings) to a new computer on Windows? (Under Linux, I'd simply rsync /home, but I don't know if Windows offers something similar or if WSL is the best bet.) #FileSync #FileTransfer #WindowsUsers #MastoHelp

@ornotermes thank you for your recommendation, my friend.
