Syncthing for background syncing things like my keepass db I always want an offline, updated copy of. Smb over wg for general filesystem access and one-off bulk copies, usually via rsync. Both are served from the same fileserver cluster; the graphene phones and macbooks are all clients. Nextcloud for notes and photos, though I can also get at those over smb if necessary.

I just use syncthing for all of these. Why do you use smb?

Because I can't fit hundreds of tb of stuff on every endpoint and don't like having to manage either adding or removing dirs from Syncthing or moving things in/out from preexisting sync dirs. IME Syncthing is also less performant on hundred-gb scale copies.
