I was also wondering if it will sync.

Mostly happy with syncthing, but open to trying new solutions.

Well... catch_unwind, but i don't think you can rely on it.

I used to use rsnapshot, which is a thin wrapper around rsync to make it incremental, but moved to restic and never looked back. Much easier and encrypted by default.

Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately?) I can't hear a difference between lossless and reasonable bitrate compressed files, so...

Thanks I'd rather my beer stay analogue in c/technology@lemmy.world

Yeah, It's actually quite a secure way to store passwords, since it requires physical access.

I knew a guy who had a drawer full of slips of paper with passwords written on. He called it the "security drawer". Made me smile, but probably shouldn't have been advertising it.

Hey,

I was wondering what folks use to quickly send a file or a link between your PC and android phone in a lightweight and self hosted way.

Currently I use syncthing to copy files around, but I'm looking for something more immediate, and quick than doesn't involve searching for folders in a file manager.

Example use case: Send a file from PC to phone. Notification pops up on phone, tap it to access.

(PC runs OpenBSD)

What lightweight software do you guys use?

Stuff I tried so far:

syncthing
xmpp
tox
scp and termux.
magic wormhole
telegram saved messages
