    What is this SyncThing fork? Is it on F-Droid or something? I feel like I’m taking crazy pills because everyone praises SyncThing but it straight up does not work. I can get it to sync once, then the next day it will just not connect at all (Android 15 P9Pro/CachyOS)

      The original android app has been discontinued by the dev for reasons. Another dev picked it up and keep publishing SyncThing fork on FDROID, at least, i get it from fdroid…

        Ok awesome, thank you. I’ll try it out. I was not aware of the discrepancy with the Play Store version

        what “crazy pills” are you taking?

        1. Hear people praise SyncThing
        2. Open the Play Store by depressing the tip of my finger on its icon
        3. Search “SyncThing”
        4. Click on first result
        5. Press “Install”
        6. It doesn’t work
