Comment on Searching advice for selfhosting critical data

I would imagine that this could be built into an app, but there are a lot of ways that such apps can sync or operate locally. I’m guessing that it is just a little more specialized than most developers want to get.
Thanks for the Syncthing-Fork tip! For now the official version is working for me, but I’ll have to migrate myself soon.
From my understanding, OpenVPN provides the same secure remote access as Tailscale, by a slightly different method. You should be fine to use what you’ve already set up.

Thank you for the explanation. I’ll probably be testing a lot of FOSS apps on my current android before I make the switch, so it’s good to know that I have to look out not just for usability, but also connectivity!
