I don’t want to sync files at all. I want files to only be on the server, accessible via web interface. Like Google Drive.
Comment on Does anyone have any experience with Sync-in for online files?

If you just want file sync, the obvious option is SyncThing. It’s established and highly regarded.

Maybe look onto OwnCloud. That’s the project NextCloud was forked from many years ago. It’s very much still around and had a very different philosophy, a much more minimalistic approach with focus on stability. That’s actually the reason the people behind NextCloud had to fork it, cause all their additional features (bloat) wasn’t accepted upstream.

It doesn’t support offline files though. I can’t dump a few hundred GB on there and then access it from my phone etc

I dont understand what you mean. As in that client a can dump files, go offline and client b can go onlineel and sync these files afterwards?

Sorry, brain fart moment.
I meant online only - the complete opposite of what I wrote …
I want to be able to upload files and have them stored on the server and only downloaded when needed (or if I mark them as always downloaded)
I don’t need or want everything on my laptop or phone (requires lots of storage!), but want to be able to get them easily when I do.
