Syncthing is a continuous file synchronization program. It synchronizes files between two or more computers.

I've been using it for years and I really like it.

It's really nice, I have a setup to sync a lot of stuff to my server from my phone and there I can easily do backups.

Great project, and I use it to sync files between machines, VMs, and a file server. So you can make an easy to manage and use cloud based solution. Throw in Zim with Markor for Android, and you can piggyback a notes solution too.

Another recommendation from me. I mainly use it to sync my music library between my desktop, my NAS, and occasionally other devices.

Calling Syncthing perfect is an understatement.

If you have a network, the merge conflicts are a real issue, though. Windows wrapper synctrayzor helps to deal with them somewhat.
