Hoe do you sync it? I've been meaning to make the switch to these for a long time now, but still not gotten around to it.
I use syncthing (mentioned below)
I used to use Dropbox, but switched to Nextcloud years ago.
Do you use KeePassDX on Android? If so, how do you access the vault from Nextcloud?
I've been using KeePassDroid. Nextcloud has an option to set files to favorites which keeps them local on Android.
But how do you access the files from another app? Where are they stored? I have nothing in the com.nextcloud.client folder for example. Proton Drive mounts in the left-hand menu of Files. Would be nice if that was achievable with Nextcloud also.
EDIT: Turns out it does if there is no app passcode enabled. Not sure I am comfortable having that turned off though.
To be honest I use signal "message to self". I know there are better ways to do it but it's a very convenient way to transfer small files from my laptop to my phone securely.
