Taildrop if you use Tailscale.
<offtopic> It’d be nice if there’s a Syncthing built into Tailscale or some of the mesh VPN solutions. Taildrop is good but it’s not entire directory sync with proper conflict resolution.
Surely I can use Syncthing inside Tailscale but 1. I have to depend on their public discoservers, or 2. I have to host and configure the discoserv myself for every client which is tedious to do </offtopic>
In syncthing you can configure ip of a device and you can turn off discovery. You can add devices by id or scanning qr of the id. I have been using that for years since I didn’t want third party servers in the equation…

You can selfhost discovery, no problem. docs.syncthing.net/users/stdiscosrv.html
