I'm a big fan of syncthing. It doesn't rely on cloud services for storage, and can work 100% locally if you want it to.

It isn't perfect. It has a model of running a web server for managing the service which is a little strange. Because it is not backed by any cloud storage it means you are on your own to make sure you keep your copies safe.

With those two issues understood, it is simple, fast, free, and and supported almost everywhere. I have it on my phone, laptop, desktop, and as a docker container on my NAS. Everything stays synced and the NAS does backups of the data.

Same, I love syncthing too. End to end encrypted, works on nearly every platform, and easy to install.
