Has anyone here ever used the FOSS Round Sync RClone for Android with
Windows (or with cloud solutions, or SMB, FTP, WebDav, etc., servers)?

Here is the FOSS Round Sync - Rclone for Android web page on GitHub:
<https://github.com/newhinton/Round-Sync>

I just started testing it to see what it could do (to help someone):
<https://github.com/newhinton/Round-Sync/releases/tag/v2.5.6>
<https://github.com/newhinton/Round-Sync/releases/download/v2.5.6/roundsync_v2.5.6-oss-universal-release.apk>
Name: roundsync_v2.5.6-oss-universal-release.apk
Size: 116786852 bytes (111 MiB)
SHA256: F6827968A7D234CD5440F5C5CCD37F944D4E96C33180EBECEBBBE96992CDCE2F

Initially, I see it's a decently simple yet useful file manager in and of
itself, and it also synced files between my internal sd card and my
external sd card pretty easily - putting a "sync" shortcut on my desktop.

It also seems to contain a task manager, where it will sync tasks also.

I noticed that it has "triggers", which is nice for automation, where those
triggers seem to be based on days of the week and times of the day.

I don't do any of the highly marketed cloud solutions but I do note it
syncs to the cloud (such as Google & DropBox & OneDrive & tons more!).

Apparently it also syncs to SMB & HTTP & WebDav servers (& tons more!),
so it might very well be useful as a (Windows:Linux):Android sync solution.

If you've used this tool, which is brand new to me (I only found it looking
for a solution for someone else), please let us know what it does for you.

Its seems, to me, upon first inspection of only a couple of minutes, to be
a rather powerful tool that seems to be adapted to many sync situations.

If you already use RoundSync, what do you use it for that you can share?
