Self hosted syncthing relay with keepass, how secure is it? (sh.itjust.works)

I already have my keepassxc and syncthing setup on my phone and computers and it's great, I'd like to go a step further and have my password database sync when I'm not on my home network. From my understanding I can use relays set up by other users and they are encrypted, but if I do not trust syncing personal (encrypted) data to someone else's server how easy is it to set up a relay that only I use? I won't be using Bitwarden because in theory if I can pull this off I can also use syncthing to sync other files as well. Is setting up a personal relay a lot of work or a potential security risk for my home network?

So you do not trust the syncthing encryption when it goes through someones server but when it goes through someones (your ISP and the ISP of the end device) router/server?

I am not really understanding the thread model here.
