I always had a hard time wrapping my head around the setup. I mostly use Nextcloud for sync now.
I use it to transfer large video files and 40000+ images from my phone to PC it transfer fast then normal copy between systems
I connect my PC and phone in tethering mode and open syncthing on both devices
I get 30mb+ per second transfer speed
That's one of the advantages with p2p-ish networks, if you're on the same network, devices can often disover each other and communicate directly, bypassing the bottleneck of an internet connection like traditional cloud services have .
it should be in the repository, you can use web UI, default is

It's really annoying to back up anything on Android as the fucking SAF doesn't allow me to back up root folders, so I have to back up everything individually.
