Seems to be one of the only sync solutions offering differential sync. However, otherwise a pretty abysmal experience.

The granddaddy of cloud backup/syncing. Their recent (completely pointless) overhaul of the UI notwithstanding, Dropbox is still unbeatable if you want all your work files synced between multiple locations and need a good delta/differential sync system so each time you make one tiny change to a 2GB file you don't have to reupload the whole thing. Over and over again. I'm looking at you, Google Drive, OneDrive, etc.

Note: Since nothing Google makes has Delta sync, every time you make a tiny change to a massive file the stupid system has to reupload the entire thing. Only Dropbox (and a few others) support Delta sync, which makes all of these solutions completely useless for my purposes.

‘Syncthing has NO central server. It is peer-to-peer file/folder synchronization. you run the Syncthing application on EVERY device you want to sync. It is both server and client and only talks with other Syncthing applications. You cannot share individual files with Syncthing.’ (src)
