… 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!
ETA: Sorry, sorry, I should have explained: I no longer trust any variant of Syncthing. The wild chain of events last year left me completely questioning what was going on with that code base. I struggle with trust issues for FOSS software every so often and once I feel things have gone awry, I can’t go back again. Plus, I really want to know about what’s new and interesting right now.

I’ll give a dumb idea, maybe KDE Connect and an rsync cron lol
Ohwow, did not know it could do that. Been using KDE Connect for years and yes, this works.
Thanks - that’s it for me. ^^^ This idea wins, y’all.
How’d you use rsync with kde connect?
I’m seconding the request for a writeup.
amazing lol
You can rsync from your Linux pc to your phone via SSH over port 8022 (you’ll need Termux), and schedule when the script runs with a cron job. Here’s some documentation:
