Sync files from one computer to 1 or more others
I often work on data or files on my desktop, and later move to my laptop to continue working. My understanding of the current sync a folder function is that files from each computer are segregated in the cloud. There's no way to sync a folder on one computer and have that folder mirrored on another. This functionality is like SugarSync.

Syncing files/folders from one computer to another would be great

I would love it if there were multiple options for folder syncing:
1. Sync folder with a folder in your drive (accessible by other devices too)
2. Sync folder with other devices but do not show in your main drive overview
3. Sync folder for backup (no access on other devices, we only have this now I believe)I especially need 1 or 2 to sync files between my laptop (windows) and phone (android). I need them available in a local folder because I want to use those files in apps like Obsidian

1) I need to be able to sync multiple computers to my P-Drive without them syncing between each other (except the shared Proton folder).
2) I need an isolated storage vault, where I can backup files, and have them NOT sync to any machines. Like in Sync.com for instance.
I do not see how to achieve these with Proton and these are the most basic features... Did I miss some memo? The "other computers" folder with the "images" of all files from the other computers is a disaster for me. I do not want to mess with the other computers files and I do not want these to appear in various searches run on the local drive... Please....
