have you tried syncthing? is it the same?
2 comments

I use Syncthing between my PC and phone.

The initial setup was confusing, though I appreciate it's offering configuration that's not possible with a service like Dropbox.

Almost all the time, files are synced to the other device when I want to see them. Occasionally, if that's just a few seconds after the file was created (e.g. take photo on phone and expect to see it on the computer) some connection glitch delays this. I can't rely on the interface to tell when this has happened.

(I have ~6GB of mostly music + photos synced.)

I tried to setup syncthing, but I just found resilio more feature-rich.
