A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

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).

Similar issues even with just 2 DIMMs with some XMP/EXPO profiles not working on AMD systems because of board/CPU limits. It should technically work, but for whatever reason it just can't handle it and speeds need to be dropped or the timings loosened a bit even though the RMA itself is rated for that.

Not that the higher speeds are even necessary for 90% of users outside extreme overclocking. DDR5 6000 is basically where you reach diminishing returns anyway, and that's often where that limit seems to appear.

Ugh. And as far as I'm reading, we're hitting limits with the connectors and interconnects so the next iteration up might require some type of CAMM interface. 😔
