📦 Efficient file syncing for massive datasets? Forget classic rsync!

#BLAKE3 hashes instead of timestamps – hash 70GB in just ~20 seconds thanks to multithreading across all CPU cores

#DevOps #Linux #SysAdmin #OpenSource #FileSync

📊 Algorithm comparison for 70GB:
- BLAKE3: ~20 seconds
- MD5: ~1.5 minutes
- SHA256: ~4.5 minutes

🔍 The trick: Create a hash baseline, compare with `comm -13`, then use `rsync --files-from` to transfer only actually changed files

AutoUpload #PDF Documents scanned with your phone's camera to your #Nextcloud.

Wouldn't that be nice? Unfortunately Nextcloud #Android only autouploads images (per default).

Fortunately, X-plore Filemanager has a #FileSync Feature that can upload anything! But only in intervals.

Fortunately there is #Tasker. Which can run Launcher AppShortcuts, like X-Plore's FileSync and can trigger on FileClose event in a Folder. 😀

Now Instant Scan Upload works like a charm.

Just me or does #nextcloud feel a bit more bloated with all the extras that make it great for someone replacing a while suite… but someone who just wants file management, people still using #seafile or other options?

Impressive #foss file/sync bucket like #dropbox
#PydioCells apparently enterprise grade #filesync

Took me all of 30min to deploy #podman image.
Most of it was trying to get the passwords I set in the YML right.

Looks very shiny and easy to use.

Interesting. For ~90% of the people who use #Syncthing, they don´t seem to have any issues at all or they don't realize that they've got issues as of them ~20% are somewhat unsure.

Maybe the issues are only growing with larger setups? 🤔

I was thinking of stopping to recommend @syncthing to people because of the severe problems I face in recent time with Syncthing Desktop between Linux hosts as well as in combination with Synthing-fork for Android. 😔

Too bad that there aren't drop-in replacements around. Maybe I'll go back to #Unison file synchronizer with all of its issues with version dependencies. I think I don't want a public #NextCloud server exposing >4TB of my data ...

A cautionary tail regarding data loss…
Despite my best efforts, my wife has resisted for years my requests for her to stop relying on iCloud and Dropbox and move her cloud storage onto our NAS which has perfectly good file sync and backup clients.

#Tech question:

Any advice on syncing files between #Linux #Windows and a #WebDAV cloud storage? #FreeFileSync is very unreliable with WebDAV, CloudSync on my NAS also, especially with often modified files. Copying is not an issue, but i need a reliable sync feature. #TechSupport #FileSync #OpenSource

With respect to ciberlandia.pt/@jt_rebelo/1140, I will be looking for Dropbox replacements - somewhat slowly because I have other fish to fry, but it's on my to-do.

EU based suggestions are welcome. Must support sync for Android, Linux, Windows 11 & Mac OS, unfortunately.

Seafile is an enterprise-ready free and open source alternative to DropBox or NextCloud for file syncing and sharing

squeet.me/display/962c3e10-678

The image shows three individuals collaborating on a large digital document. The foreground features two people actively working on the document, one appearing to add content, while the other seems to be reviewing or editing. The background includes shelves with books and database stacks, suggesting a setting related to information management and storage. A cloud icon with a download arrow above suggests cloud storage or data transfer. A security shield icon is present, implying security measures are in place for the document.

Seafile provides very fast file syncing. Tens of thousands of small files can be synced in a minute. It does what it does very well, without including an entire kitchen sync of extras. Seafile’s built-in collaborative document, SeaDoc, make it easy ...continues
