if only photosync would work properly in the background on ios … i thought it is supposed to but it just doesnt do the thing by itself. sometimes i get a notification about 0/5xx photos being synced. hm. i know its more like ios sabotaging the software here, yet still it prevents me from using it more :/
Apple sabotages your user experience at every turn unless you use their solutions which cost money and your response is to stop using other software. Sounds like the desired outcome for Apple.

Have you tried the Immich app? I know in general iOS has such restrictive power management that syncing can be unreliable.
thats what i meant – is there an alternative option?
iOS is awful about how it handles photos. It doesn’t really permit other apps to manage them automatically. I’ve fought this issue lots.
