This is very close to what I was looking for.

I am going to try this and Tahoe-LAFS for a future extension of the service to a small local network.

Thanks for the suggestions

Yes file access through the network and the web (https or something better).

I understand that a self-hosted Nextcloud istance is still my best option.

I will restore it but in the mean time also try some of the other suggestions here.

thanks

Well I may have tinkered too much with my server.

I have no real problem with Nextcloud, I have been using it for the last five years.

I have been hosting it on a RaspberryPi3 and well the machine isn’t the most powerful out there.

So taking advantage of this sudden break I have been looking for a serverless alternative.

ipfs was my initial idea too. It being not private is a drawback tho

You can choose refuse things from the folder/drive and you must always configure in each computer individually like the nextcloud sync client.

I was missing this feature.

I’ll read more carefully the documentation then.

Tank you

Uhm I understood that Syncthing works by copying folders between machines and keeping them synchronized.

Now, what I was looking for is a software that records that, say, machine A has a file, tells that to machine B and retrieves the file only after an explicit B request.

Does Syncthing do that?

Ok I’ll take a look at it. Thanks!

Uhm what I meant is this:

Say I have a file in machine A. This software should be able to tell to machine B that A has the file and retrieve after an explicit request from B.

Probably my wording wasn’t the best.

I hope now it is clear what I was trying to ask :-)
