> But where would you sync to?

You sync across your devices (or anything where you can run a standalone binary). Phone, PC, server, whatever. It's pretty good and very stable when your packager doesn't fuck up the service file (https://svnweb.freebsd.org/ports/head/net/syncthing/files/sy...).

That's only needed if you need access to your files from the outside world (which is probably a bad idea). For instance, my ~/Documents are syncthing-only, not available through my Nextcloud instance. Can't access my payslip from last year on my phone. Can't have it stolen through that channel either!

On my "ideal" requirements list is the ability to sync, encrypted, to a standard cloud backend as well. https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/issues/2647

Then use git-annex, which has had that for years :)

Apparently git-annex won't let you store a git repo in it? http://git-annex.branchable.com/forum/Storing_git_repos_in_g...

(Sure, "don't do that then", but I'd rather not have to remember to not do that)
