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?

      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.
