Sure, but that's a lot of work and worry to keep all those backups going and syncd

I think it took me 15 minutes to first install SyncThing and Vorta? I literally haven't worried about this for the last two years

Now, you're probably an IT admin or programmer

I'm a biologist :) (though to be fair, mastering in bioinformatics, but this setup came first!)

And in the end, you have a computer hooked to your stereo, the one place I'm trying to escape the constant computing.

My stereo is a Gradiente from the 70s, no computers there. My portable player does connect to a computer to sync sometimes... but I do this when charging, so out of mind.
