Hey folks! I know a while back there was a kerfuffle because syncthing-fork for Android went dark, and then a new person showed up and claimed everything was cool and they’d been privately given the keys or something, and people were concerned. I pinned my fdroid version to the at-that-time-current release until we got clarity.

Well, it’s been a while and I just noticed I’m still on that old release. So… how’d it turn out? Do we like the new person yet? Is there a promising fork y’all are using? Or is the project dead? I’m sure I could just go look at the repo, but I’m also sure the repo would tell me “yeah, we’re all cool” no matter what, so I’m curious what the community feelings are. Have there even been any useful new releases since then?

Thanks!

    I see, that would be really helpful, and I did know that as the name suggest SYNCthing was obv for syncing, but, I just couldnt get it to work properly on my zorin and samsung together, whether the folder would never be created in the directory i inputed and so on, so as I last ditch I was like “wth, may as well use it to save stuff” then I found local send, the ease of it almost makes it as easy as syncing…almost
