Nobody owns their smartphone. Just like nobody owns anything else anymore. But personally, my "cloud provider" is a server box in my basement which I do own.
I just don't see the benefit of using an SD card. But I've seen too many of them fail while I was a photographer so maybe I'm just burnt out.
I don't rely on the SD card on my phone to be the sole source of my data, it is a common pool so that I don't have to walk around firehosing cellular data back and forth for no reason.
Syncthing works best when one device is always on or nearly always on the internet, so my phone is the perfect bounce port to keep a bigger network of syncthing devices working together on (note Syncthing will sync over a local network if possible, which is most of the time with my devices).
If the SD card fails shrugs I get another one?
I mean.. that is the route that cameras take right? You just use two SD cards. I do the same thing but with a paired raspberrry pi and another SD card that is connected with Syncthing.
