I followed the instructions from the Docs and got proxy to work but when it autostarts on my linux box it does not make use of the proxy.
I eventually could get it to work as the root user but then all my Syncthing settings where gone. I was thinking maybe I need to edit the syncthing-start.desktop file and include the proxy there or some other solution?
Any tips on how to autostart syncthing using a proxy?
Ah right. You could wrap it in /bin/bash -c "..." then, but that’s becoming a bit ugly.
This is a desktop entry implemented by the DE and speced by freedesktop though, not systemd: Desktop Entry Specification. I don’t see any dedicated config option for env variables there.
