i made sink. it's a simple little tool that continuously syncs folders between 2 devices. no cloud, no email, flash drives, no bs.

it just uses your local wifi. run it on your machines, tell them to trust each other, and you're set. and if you manage to edit the same file at once, it handles the conflict and saves both copies.

for anyone who just wants to get files from point a to b without the headache. hope it makes your life a bit less annoying.

I have been a Resilio Sync user for a while but find it increasingly fragile and prone to randomly breaking. Reconnecting always seems to be a roll of the dice if something gets deleted and I suppose this is a good time to figure out if there are better alternatives.

Syncthing on iOS still seems to be iffy so I'd be interested if Sink can help fill in this space eventually.
