Synchronize Ultimate: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.synchronizeultimate
Also look at the relevant XDA thread.
Multiple server/ cloud services available, probably no peer to peer, for the latter I'd take a look at SyncThing: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nutomic.syncthingandroid and I believe there's also a BitTorrent alternative.
It was previously OK with DS Cloud.
I have found a work around using https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.synchronizeultimate&hl=en_GB&gl=US. Sync via SMB.
I had not noticed yet Foldersync is abandonned. Damn! Although Foldersync still works here, Synchronize Ultimate might be an option. From same dev Servers Ultimate works well here, although I do not use it often.

And just to mention,there is another great app for synch with Tasker integration, Synchronize Ultimate. That one is able to trigger Tasker profiles on results, like when synch failed etc.

Synchronize Ultimate looks interesting, thanks! Although, it seems a bit, mm, "bloated" for my tastes, what with all the different services it supports, as well as its other features. But if it gets the job done...
I looked at Damselfly, and I'm a bit confused about how it works. It doesn't seem to be "self-hosted" in that it's a separate program you run on a server.
Rather, it seems it wants me to do an initial index of my photos locally, copy those to my server, and it'll automatically index any new photos on my phone, which then also need to be copied to my server manually/externally?
But then, what's the "server" distribution for!? Maybe I'm missing something obvious...
Another question: the README states that you need to place .nomedia
files in any directory you don't want to scan.
Do you have to do this for every directory? Or can you select only certain directories to scan, e.g. just the "Pictures" folder on my phone? Or, does it mean that I can select just the "Pictures" folder, and I can also put .nomedia
files in any subfolder (of the "Pictures" folder) that I don't want to scan?
Aside from the confusion in the README (which may just be on my end), Damselfly does look quite nice; I like its AI-powered image recognition the most, as well as its many search functions.
One of the few things I'm not a fan of is the lack of video support, which is currently a dealbreaker for me. Though it seems it's on the way, which is good!
...All assuming you meant to link to this GitHub repo, of course.
Have a play with Synchronize Ultimate. I use this (in combination with Tasker) to sync a ~50GB library once a week.
I've used an app called Synchronize Ultimate that can sync to a ton of services/protocols, I think it has S3 support too.
Firstly NC Android app cannot sync any existing files to your server
I'd suggest testing Synchronize Ultimate
The NextCloud forum is a great resource to discover information such as this
If you have FolderSync and it works for you, why switch?
I personally use FolderSync because it has multiple providers, I wouldn't switch to something which didn't as I tend to favour WebDAV servers, so if I had to switch I'd probably switch to something like Sync Ultimate despite the relatively low ratings.
It doesn't really matter. If someone someway gets your file, they can't do anything with it without the password. If you are paranoid create a key file and open the file with that, store it on a usb drive. On android phones you can attach a usb drive with a cheap otg converter.
on android I use Synchronize Ultimate with this you can sync your dropbox (or any other) account to your device just like on a desktop.
I'm using Synchronize Ultimate (has Tasker integration!) https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.synchronizeultimate
or
Folder Sync Pro https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dk.tacit.android.foldersync.full
You can use owncloud, seafile, and a ton of other services with synchronize ultimate
It can do one way sync, two way sync, delete files if deleted somewhere else (what you want), and has all sorts of schedules and trigger support for running the sync, including sync when a local file is changed or when the camera takes a picture.
I've heard that the Owncloud mobile client is pretty bad, but the Pydio one is relatively decent. However, keep in mind that there are web apps for owncloud (document editors, music players, ect.) that Pydio and Seafile both don't support.

This app can access all 3 :D
Synchronize Ultimate works with over 100 cloud storage providers.
If you have a Synology, you can use DSPhoto to backup without using a third party cloud provider
One app to sync them all.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.synchronizeultimate
Takes a bit of work to find out how each program stores its information but once you do you have all your devices sync to a google drive account and sync by latest file date.
Not the solution you might be looking for but an alternative would be to use a program where you can sync anything including saved data files like book positions.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.synchronizeultimate
This program allows you to(for free) sync files/folders to an online storage like GDrive/Dropbox.
This will allow you to make any program sync between your tablet and phone.

Some people hate the UI but whatever. Just find where the file is that clover uses to store the data and two way sync via one of the free services.
wrong link,
this is it https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.synchronizeultimate
Bad bot! Wrong link for Sychronize Ultimate. Here is the right one:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.synchronizeultimate
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.icecoldapps.synchronizeultimate
Problem is that changes would need Tasker to restart.
Synchronize Ultimate may work

The only time you would need root is to access to root of your phones storage
I've used FolderSync's paid app for years but recently tried out Synchronize Ultimate by Ice Cold Apps
Nice one, I ended up accomplishing something like this, but using Termux. Thanks!
For anyone interested:
Open termux
on your phone and run the following:
$ apt update && apt upgrade $ apt install openssh $ scp --help
Now you have ssh
and scp
available inside termux
. The binaries itself are at /data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin
To run these from Tasker, you can create a Run Shell
task with command:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/lib/data/data/com.termux/files/usr/bin/scp <arguments>
I end up wraping this inside a .sh
script, and then use Tasker Run Shell
to execute this script.
edit: I ended up using Synchronize Ultimate that allows you to configure a SSH server to where you can scp your files, and integrates with tasker
Synchronize Ultimate can do this.
Not foss, but free, you can sync a lot of cloud services with this: Synchronize Ultimate. Perfectly works with microg, it says contains ads, but I haven't seen any of them, so if you can't find a good foss alternative I recommend this (I'm using this because I couldn't find any foss alternatives)
