This category is for describing how you use syncthing. This gives the developers a feeling for what's going on, and may give other users ideas and hints.

General is the "none of the above" category... If it's not something you need help with, it's not a discussion about a new feature, it's not a how-to guide, then maybe it fits here.

Discussion about this forum, its organization, how it works, and how we can improve it.
