[Question] Shared folder across devices (lemmy.ml)

I have a VPS server in the cloud that I use for wireguard. I got the idea to also use it to host a shared folder across my devices: Linux laptop and Android phone.

I started doing some research on this, and would welcome pointers.

Syncthing. I switched from Dropbox to syncthing several years ago when Dropbox started enshitifying and never looked back.

Sync thing is a great resource if you want your files to be replicated across systems. I use it for files that I might work on while in different locations and devices.

Its basically a personal onedrive or Dropbox.
