I still remember when this cloud thing was just starting, and some people were absolutely glowing that they can have 4 gigs in the cloud for only 5 bucks a month. At the time I had been drowning in 4GB and larger memory cards for probably a decade.

    Would you mind elaborating on the difference/ your experience between Resilio vs Owncloud? I’ve poked around on their site but some user feedback / experience would be appreciated.

    I run a Plex server on a Windows machine and could spare a few terabyte extra to host my own photo and video storage for my wife and i. Is this what these do? Ideally I would be able to set it up so it just uploads once you plug your phone in and are on the network. Or is that too fancy for either of these?

    Thanks!

      Resilio just works to synchronize data. That’s All it does, across any operating system or platform, selectively or whole hog.

      Owncloud or Nextcloud are meant to be similar to Google drive, a central repository with clients connecting, and a web interface.
