Well hi, I’d like to share my small story, here at home LAN I need to have a sync between 4-5 devices(all Ubuntu and one Android Los15), I was using NextCloud which I was happy with allright. I just decided to give syncthing a try, I think it goes ok, smooth and the rest so far(10 days now). May the force be with us!

What I find awesome comparing to NC is I don’t need to keep mysql,php and apache for just syncing files. Great job, I hope I will be able to put a small stone to the project some time in the future.
