Been using syncthing for a year now and works great for syncing between devices. But i miss file sharing with family members that nextcloud allowed me to do. Yet i left ut because it was too bloated and every update at the time broke my instalkation. Is there something a mature and specialised as syncthing but that allows sharing between accounts?
samba shares are windows shares, on linux. any os, mobile and desktop, can either access them directly or got a light-weight client for doing so.
you set up one or multiple shares on your server, like one is “family” and other is “steve” and you can define what each user can do to them - just browse, or read, or write to, etc
or if you need just a read-only share, any web server (apache, nginx, etc) can allow access to a folder you shared.
