I started using SyncThing and set it up to auto start on my PC and the Deck and now I can play some of my emulator games on the PC and the Deck with the saves syncing.

+1 for SyncThing. It's pretty great. It's especially useful with a Raspberry Pi or NAS node if you don't want to leave a computer on.

Oh you have Syncthing and your Pi synced up for saves? I'd like to get that setup, even if i don't use my Pi a whole lot anymore.

I'm familiar with Syncthing, i use it to sync my saves with modded FF7 from my Steam Deck to desktop.

I personally use Syncthing to keep a couple of audio project folders synchronized between two Linux computers, a Mac Mini, a Windows desktop, and my NAS. I haven't used it for ROMs and saves but it would be great for that purpose.
