… without using any variation of Syncthing.

My phone is usually on the same Wifi network as my PC, so some sort of auto-syncing via wifi would be great. Like how Immich syncs from the phone to my server, in an almost totally hands-off way.

What are the best non-Syncthing FOSS phone and PC file sync options these days?

Thanks!

    I am assuming this is referring to the recent drama around syncthing-fork, which made a lot of people question its safety.

    But in the meantime another app called BasicSync jumped into that gap.

        Be careful when you set it up. Make sure to enable file system access before you start syncing. I think it got fixed in the release a few days ago, but before that BasicSync thought without file system access that you had an empty folder and deleted all files on the remote directory. Happened to me.

        Other than that it works as expected, quite happy with it.
