Hi,
As the title suggests: what are alternatives to syncthing that are basically fire and forget, works on multiple device types, and just focuses on file syncing?
I’ve had over the months the weirdest problems with syncthing, and lately I noticed some of my photos got corrupted, which is an absolute no no for me. I use syncthing currently as a easy automatic backup of documents, photos and other files, between my PCs and my phones (they all send only to the server. Folders are not shared with other devices).
This seems very odd, I’ve been using syncthing for a good 5 years and never had a single file corrupt - might be worth opening an issue on their github
I could try to do that, but I simply do not have reproducible steps that are certain to make the problem happen. I am a developer myself, and I absolutely despise when someone says ‘hey, something random happened the other day. I cannot say what are the steps, but it is there’ just to find out in the end nothing is there, or is simply not reproducible no matter what and for reasons that I might never find out
Someone might recognise your issue though and have suggestions, even if you can’t reproduce it exactly
