It is important to have exact copies of your most important files on a secondary location just in case where you currently store them experience disaster which often happen.
Every breaking upgrade makes devices drop off my cluster until I manually log on there and upgrade them. Even if you manage to make it run in the background (via NSSM in my case), it is not a fire-and-forget solution.I have had devices shown as connected for hours after I turned them off, and other devices sitting at 75% sync even if all files were identical. Device and sync status (using both the browser and the GTK GUI) often are inaccurate.
Syncthing-notify is yet another separate component you have to manually install and run as a service.
Syncthing is cumbersome to use both on Windows and Android.
I also love the community and the interaction with developers. I haven’t had a single case of file loss or corruption caused by Syncthing. If you don’t care, that’s fine I just wanted to at least tell you why.įirst of all, Syncthing does what it’s supposed to do. After two years of using Syncthing (having come from Bittorrent Sync), I’m moving my mesh back to Resilio.
