Why is the existing local folders which can then be synced by the OndDrive, Dropbox, Syncthing, clients not good enough? How can that be improved? Perhaps to get more at the root of the problem. Additionally, there is no native iOS client (I’m not an iOS user), due to iOS limited capability to share Syncthing files to another app that isn’t the Files app. Personally, I use Syncthing, which works great for me, but is a bit more complex than the more common options. To support just 1 will only serve a subset. To support them all will be a mammoth task. Some in this thread mention OneDrive, I generally use Google Drive, and many others will use Dropbox, etc. Then select the option for your computer and hit Add folder to start syncing.A challenge of which cloud provider to use will come up. To sync folders from your computer, click the Drive icon in the menu bar, then the gear icon, followed by Preferences. With Google Drive for desktop, you can choose to have your files streamable from the cloud (they won’t exist on your hard drive) or mirrored (physical copies will exist on your Drive and computer). Your files will be safe and sound in the cloud, but if you need to edit them you’ll need to return to this screen and download them again, or download them directly from the Google Drive website (which may take some time with larger files and folders). To make some folders online-only, check the Sync these folders only box, then deselect the folders you don’t want local copies of. To sync everything between Google Drive in the cloud and the local Google Drive folders on your computer, check the box marked Sync everything in My Drive. To pick your folders on a free account, open the Google Backup and Sync Preferences screen, then switch to the Google Drive tab.
