Cryptomator [1]. Cross-platform, allows you to encrypt your data in the cloud, and access it transparently.

Thing is, like Syncthing, it lacks a collaborative feature. Nextcloud has it, but only if you have the Nextcloud accessible (I want to host only on LAN). Something like IPFS (or Tor) is a solution to such problem.

It does not, you can share folders with anyone you want without them even needing an account.
