#askfedi Any longtime #syncthing user out there? I would like to go give another try, my experience from 5-6 years ago was not that great, I didn't want to use the public relay/discovery server and I remember it was not that smooth, I had quite some discrepancy among my devices. How is it nowadays? If you are a longtime user, can you share your experience? (i don't ask for config) thank you

@omar@mastodon.bsd.cafe I am a long time user of #syncthing and overall it is working fine between Mac, Netbsd and Linux. Sometimes the sync in a LAN is not as fast as I wanted. Sometimes there are some sync conflicts, not sure why they happen. As I don't know anything better, I'm pretty happy with how it works as I don't need any 3rd party service.

I just lost situational (situGUInal?) awareness and accidentally deleted two entire photo albums from my phone gallery thinking they were just two images. And #Syncthing replicated the deletion to all my computers. But, happy ending, not only do I take regular #BorgBackup backups, I also use #btrbk so recovered everything via the snapshots on the laptop within 60 seconds, and of course Syncthing copied them back to the phone immediately. Check your backups.

@dhry@mastodon.social @emory@soc.kvet.ch Didn't know that Synctrain was even a thing. Until recently. How does it compare to Möbius Sync? Should #Synctrain now be considered the preferred #Syncthing app on #iPhone?

@shapr@recurse.social I used to use a git repo. It was fine, except I would inevitably forget to pull or push changes and then have to deal with conflicts or wonder why I can’t find that thing I wrote yesterday. I’m currently using #Syncthing (https://syncthing.net/) to keep files on each device in sync with my local file server. Working great so far.

Ich bin schon beim DID angekomme und richte Dual-Boot mit Linux ein... wäre es eigentlich stabil nutzbar, wenn ich von der Win11 und Linux Partition abwechselnd auf dieselbe Datenpartition schreibe, auf der einige Ordner liegen, die jeweils über Syncthing mit meinem NAS synchronisiert werden? #syncthing #dual_boot #linux
