    For those using it on Android, a reminder that the older app is not maintained anymore and you might want to replace it with Catfriend1/syncthing-android.

    But also - maybe wait for the app v2.0 to be released to upgrade the desktop client at the same time; I don’t know if using v2.0 on the desktop would work with the v1.x app.

      It’s wild how it has the fastest read performance of any other sql backend, even postgres.

        I remember using SQLite like 12 years ago as a backend for Minecraft mods, and even more recently as a backend for HomeAssistant and switching away to something else for performance…and now switching back. Kudos to them for all the work that went into that! Worst to first!

          Oh, have they started working on aviation grade test harnesses?

          SQLite will rule our world for a long time, far after we are gone.

      Am I missing something? SQLite is great, but it isn’t really comparable to most other SQL databases, unless you’re talking about nosql alternatives?

      It is beautiful. I haven’t even thought of using a database server for personal projects in years. SQLite all the way. It’s so simple and performant (for my use cases).

    Syncthing is great.

    That reminds me, I should donate them some money. They’ve saved me untold amounts of money and headache from dealing with cloud services.

    Easily one of the most integral and convenient pieces of software in my use. I’ve got six machines syncing up in various degrees: desktop, laptop, Android, ereader, media server, and laser controller. It along with Tailscale are among first things I install. I’m hoping version 2.0 is as stable as 1 has been. The only trouble I’ve ever had out of was when I was syncing something in my local cloud directory.

    Doens’t look like Syncthing-Fork is on 2.0 yet. They have an RC but if you use it, you might want to be careful upgrading before they release.

    There doesn’t seem to be that many changes for the user, at least not for me. Hopefully the performance difference is noticeable.

    Good Point to start fresh? Mine ist totally fucked. Dont even know how i should start over :(

    (Some syncthin-fork update or android update fucked the folder paths and trying to fix it while also adding a new folder somehow created some loops/crashes/conflicts)
