Veracrypt is a disk encryption tool, not for syncing!


I don't think you've understood my comment.


I have done this and been there before.

Dropbox syncs the deltas in LUKS and veracrypt disks. A change of a bit in plaintext changes the blocks that are involved, and only those blocks are updated. But most other sync tools don’t handle it properly.

That was around a decade ago. Today, one would use cryptomator, rclone, gocryptfs rtc.
