try Syncthing, it syncs arbitrary folders from one device to another, like Dropbox or OneDrive but more flexible

I use RetroArch on everything so syncing saves and states folders between gaming PC, media center, and Steam Deck

encourages me to keep playing on whatever device is convenient at hand

I still use SyncToy. In conjunction with TailScale, it keeps my data in my hands.

That's a great idea, didnt know retroarch had auto saves, but cool! I'll try it out with my steam deck

Sometimes the fun in new gadgets is like Lego- you do the setup and then you just stare at it proudly

This also has autosaves and cloud saves less glitchy than retro arch (ra always crashes on my Nvidia shield). We also use this on a pi400.

Had the strength to stop at one anbernic and one analogue pocket, but retroid 5 is so tempting...

And casually place it in a drawer to be cleaned out and donated in 5 years time...
