minus-squareLeax@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·9 months agoI’ve never heard of Syncthings, could you tell me more about it? Sounds interesting!
minus-squareNath@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·9 months agoIt’s a free app that syncs files to a central location. In my case, I sync any photo or video I take on my Pixel 7 to my Pixel 1. The Photos app on my Pixel 1 then uploads the new photos to Google Photos.
