Are there any distributed or p2p file syncing tools other than Syncthing or Resilio that can be accessed from ios? (alien.top)

Syncthing has Möbius and Resilio has an official app for ios. But I am desperately trying to find something else.

Syncthing is not an option as long as it doesn’t have selective sync. Resilio works fine but even the pro version is really lacking, plus it’s more or less dead anyway. But at-least it does integrate with Files on iOS.

What I am looking for is anything distributed, anything where i can download from multiple peers at once. I have servers at home, servers at work, and a VPS that all contain the same data and Id like to be-able to pull from them all at the same time. Or at a minimum at-least something that is smart enough to connect to whichever peer is the fastest.

The biggest limit seems to be that I need selective sync, iOS Files integration, and some way to access the files from MacOS.

The only thing I could think of is a Ceph cluster but I don’t know enough about it to even know if it would work for my use.

I was on the same boat, unfortunately if the selective sync is a must (for me it was), you will not find anything better than resilio pro for ios devices.
Working like a charm for 2 years for me and my family.
