Jellyfin/Plex like many have mentioned.
I personally like Syncthing for petty much everything else. For general file syncing of course. But also with Joplin pointed to a synced directory for notes. With keepass as a password vault. With synced config directories for some apps across devices like newsboat for RSS, and neomutt for email. I also used to use it with rtorrent via a watch directory, though I currently am using a seedbox for that purpose.
VPN (openvpn/wireguard) is a good idea if you want to access your services outside your local network, without exposing them all globally.
Same, Syncthing is amazing. I use it with Mobius Sync on iOS and have it synching my keepass, Obsidian vault, photos, and a folder for random file transfers between devices. It’s so much better, faster, and more stable than all the most popular corporate cloud providers.
I believe Syncthing has been discontinued unless someone else took up the project.
This is absolutely not the case.
That would suck if so since I obviously utilize it heavily but this doesn't seem to be the case? Latest release was just a month ago and their github repo is active.
It doesn't really look dead anywhere on their repo or website: https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing Or are there different things with the same name? :)
Syncthing discontinued its android app on the play store.
Both syncthing and syncthing-fork are on F-Droid.
Just to be clear, what was discontinued was the official gui app.
Binaries are still updated and developed. The other gui app, syncthing-fork, still exists.
