I tend to prefer “file centered” apps, there’s some cool one you’d use with Syncthing? My favourite is KeePassDX; I would love a notes app with a ‘material you’ UI.
Good question. I have a simple home server that runs all the time. Syncthing runs on that as a sort of cache, or my own little “cloud”.
So devices, when they turn on, check the server, as well as whatever devices are online, and get the new changes.
We do this at work also, so we have our own simple “shared folders” using Syncthing.
That sounds really cool. I currently sync obsidian via a hosted solution on Hetzner using webdav. I’m wondering if I might be able to utilise it somehow as you have - maybe I won’t need to intervene as much.
Thanks for the advice.
It’s super simple to setup on home server. Then you’re not paying for cloud hosting. But, you need a home server running all the time. Which I do anyway, so may as well use it for syncthing
Just to clarify then: you use a home server - are you running Syncthing on Linux?
So, if I have an old laptop (win10) would I need to learn linux to use it as an home server - and could it use minimal power when it’s always on? The power thing is an issue here in UK.
I have a nvidia shield for the tv, is that a possibility for a server - I go run plex on it?
These might sound to you like daft questions, but I’m just learning stuff. Thanks.
