Again, I know nothing of Nextcloud. And not familiar with Syncthing
either. For getting file contents in sync across two (or more)
machines, I find that rsync meets my needs. But you mentioned WebDAV,
so I suspect I'm not really understanding what either Nextcloud or
Syncthing do. Perhaps a problem statement explaining what your use
case is might be in order? You're probably not the only person to
have that need and others here may have some helpful experiences to
share.
