Selfhosted
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.

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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

Syncthing is nice and simple to use on all platforms. I like it.
I use it to synchronize media to my raspberry pi, which then runs restic daily to do the actual backup.
However, you shouldn't use syncthing if you want to delete the files on your phone after they're backed up, because they'll disappear from the server as well. I think you can wrestle syncthing into handling this correctly, but it's not advised as it's not meant for backups.
For that I've been thinking about setting up immich or the like, but for now I have plenty of space on the phone ;)
Yes, you make a good point. I actually use Syncthing in a similar fashion. It synchronizes my files to my NAS and PC, then I have a weekly incremental backup done, this stays on the NAS and also gets uploaded encrypted to a cloud storage.
