I used Syncthing for a while between various Linux distros, and I used Syncthing-Fork on my Android tablet, and it was okay when it worked, but it often borked up, and there were so many arcane settings and weird failure modes. I realized that the only reason I was using Syncthing was because it appealed to the vestigial, ultra-paranoid crypto-fascist BOFH in me, and I had grown out of those attitudes.

So today I just use Google Drive and MS OneDrive like a normal person. They work great. I love 'em. They don't fail like Syncthing. They're way more secure, and fully supported. Come join me! The water's fine!

How is Google Drive "way more secure" than a peer-to-peer encrypted solution?

Most of us do not have IDS/IPS/DLP tooling in our home networks, nor do we have a 24/7 on-call SOC team monitoring their SIEMs dashboards.

Google and Microsoft provision this stuff, even for consumers, with secure authentication and good protections.

Syncthing is peer to peer, the files are already on the device. There's no way requiring one more device to be secure (the server) is better than not requiring it.
