I currently use Sync.com…and it works phenomenally with Windows. Problem is, it doesn’t work at all with Linux.
My primary use case is hosting my second brain with Obsidian.md and not paying $10 for sync. So, obviously, I’d like to continue file sharing and/or cloud storing without having to pay extra.
What are some options available that are compatible with both?
If you would like to backup many files, syncthing paired with hetzner box, 1TB for 4$.
If you want free solution, just sync/backup Obsidian, there’s Obsidian-git https://github.com/denolehov/obsidian-git
Obsidian-livesync is a way better plugin IMO. It can sync in realtime between devices and handles conflicts really well. And if it can’t handle it, it gives you a ‘git diff’ style tool to resolve it. All it needs is a CouchDB database to sync with, which you can run on pretty much anything.
Totally agree!
It is great! But I wouldn’t skip backups well for safety. And version control is a bonus IMHO
BTW, There was some edge Cases and reports of lost information using the live sync DB
Up vote for Hetzner. Your data, on your own instance, fully compatible with Linux. In a privacy friendly jurisdiction.
You can SFTP or Rsync data across or just add a WebDAV mount to your file manager to use it seamlessly.
If you want a fancy pants gui with automation there is Duplicacy.
Many options. Begin with Hetzner hosting.
Mega sync is what works for me.
I think this is more what I’m looking for. Thanks!
Rclone. You can configure it to work with most cloud storage services like google drive, one drive, Dropbox etc. It mounts those services to your system making them look like any network drive. You can even setup encryption if you want.
Rclone is one of those things that I never knew I needed… Then once I got it… I tried to figure out how I lived so long without it. It’s amazing.
Nextcloud.
Either self hosted with old hardware, or by a service provider.
