I use syncthing for regular syncing of files and warpinator for single files.

Termux, rsync and SSH.

Add a VPN and I can connect everywhere to my personal PC.

I’ve never once in 10 years had any difficulty using one drive or drive.

renzev OP ,

Congrats!

I pick one device-to-device option and it won’t load.

I pick another and it transfers at the speed of EDGE.

I end up just emailing the file to myself because my email is synced across all devices and it takes two minutes.

Trilobite ,

I just email myself

Mtp is so unstable in my experience that I try to use anything else available

FX File Explorer + local servers = check and mate. If I need access to it immediately from a machine, put it on my /home/drive/desktop folder and it will sync to my computers in a few seconds, via synology drive. This also works over the internet, so I can move the files at home, leave, and power up my laptop to see them available, seamlessly.

I have a second server running Debian that does the first half, but not the syncing part. It’s more for docker stuff, not personal files.

I’m disabled too, so the less I have to physically move around, the better. Having a server to just dump stuff on and access from anywhere is amazing.

No one mentioned wormhole yet, so I’m gonna.

Seafile. It’s already on my phone when I want it there.

Google Drive might be the single worst website I have ever used. Idk why, but Everytime I have to use it it takes forever to load, even though I almost exclusively have text documents saved, and the goddamn download button doesn’t even work half the time.

renzev OP ,

Whenever I have to use a cloud storage service for anything, I just add it to rclone. Solves the buggy UI problem pretty well! Dropbox/google drive subscriptions are a total scam, you can just create a new free account when your old one fills up /hj.

if it’s an image or something small i just send it to myself on discord

That can work for most things, but if it’s something like a photo, you have to put up with compression

shneancy ,

yea i’m aware, i rarely need full resolution photos on my phone. And if i do i send myself a wetransfer link on discord

renzev OP ,

I knew a guy whose “password manager” was a discord server with only himself in it. He would just send username-password combinations as plaintext messages, and look back through the chat history when he needed to log in somewhere.

shneancy ,

👁👄👁 man trusts his one discord password, himself, and discord’s security way too much

I feel a bit like a bit of a fossil here, but why not drop the file into a network file share and grab it from there on your phone? No physical item required

MudMan ,

Cx Expolorer on Android can access network shares and Samba shares like a desktop OS. It really isn't a particularly outdated option, it's so much less fiddly than direct drive access from a PC and it effectively works just like a USB stick, interface-wise, without having to do the whole "where did I put my thumbdrive" dance each time.

never underestimate the data transfer speed of a truckload of hard drives
