It only takes a minute of your time to copy your important files to a drive or the cloud. I (potentially) lost one year of progress on a book I’m writing because of my negligence.
So please don’t be like me.

It really depends on how many devices you’re talking about. Two is infinitely better than zero, but not ideal. If you’ve got several devices at several locations syncing files, I don’t see how that’s much worse than a cloud service. And amazon can’t look at my Weiner pics that way.
(I’m kidding, of course. Making Jeff Bezos see my hog is a feature of AWS, not a defect.)
One problem with it is that deleting a file in Syncthing may also delete it on other machines. And a backup solution will keep multiple versions of old files which can be lifesaving if you make a bad edit.
