I second this, I use syncthing for phone camera to pc and laptop and have never had a problem. It’s almost instant too, it’s kinda nuts that it doesn’t even need Internet to connect between devices. I a world where everything needs an account, and tracking, syncthing is a simple grace I take for granted
But syncthing deletes images when they are deleted on the phone right? I just tried it, and this is what seems to happen. Is there a way to set it up such that I can delete things on my phone, but they won’t be deleted on the server?
Look into Foldersync, PhotoSync, Nextcloud, Immich. They all work how you would expect where photos are backed up, and you can then remove them from your device if needed.
Syncthing.
App on the phone and host on the server.

Yup, it’s not a good solution.
