> But file syncing is a “dumb” protocol. You can’t “hook” into sync events, or update notifications, or conflict resolution. There isn’t much API; you just save files and they get synced. In case of conflict, best case, you get two files. Worst — you get only one :)

Sync services haven't evolved much. I guess, a service that would provide lower APIs and different data structures (CRDTs, etc.) would be a hacker's dream. Also, E2EE would be nice.

And if they closed the shop, I would have all the files on my devices.
