Are anyone up-to-date on the status of the syncthing-fork on Android, following the drama of catfriend1’s sudden disappearance and the less-than-trust-building behavior of researchxxl? Did they rebuild that trust? Was it forked again by someone more trustworthy?

    Syncthing-Fork is apparently fine.

    I had freaked out over it briefly but someone had linked to proof that the handover was legit: https://old.reddit.com/comments/1tfldu7 (Yes, I know linking here is that-which-shall-not-be-done-on-Lemmy but the discussions were interesting and are worth reading.)

    With that said, I actually like BasicSync’s design more than -Fork anyway so I’m sticking to BasicSync for now. I think either is fine.

      Thanks for the link - I’ll dig into that tomorrow!

      I am also going to check more into BasicSync.
