Looking for good/helpful software for windows to get. Stuff that offers QoL improvements etc

And no I don’t care about Linux so don’t bother suggesting I switch to it.

    If you can create notes on the phone you’re doing better than I am with Nextcloud. I’ve never been able to get anything I made on the phone to sync, i can edit and it will sync TO the phone but for whatever reason it doesn’t work the other way with new files. I have a workaround of having a standing “scratch” note that I copy stuff out of when i’m back at home but it’s an extra annoyance i’d rather not deal with.

      Syncthing seems to be a good way to get real-time two-way sync so far, but I’ve had a few accidents while setting it up, overwriting latest changes. Probably my fault, but I’m glad that I have backups to other machines.

      I tried owncloud years ago and I didn’t want something that heavyweight for file syncing. And I think it stores a copy of all it’s days in a database too. I just want to sync files in-place only. I haven’t tried that or nextcloud in a long time.
