This is a feature request
I’ve enabled “Run according to time schedule” option on three devices. Currently, each device waits 60 minutes after its last sync before attempting to sync again, resulting in them syncing at different times.
If the devices could instead attempt to sync within the first five minutes of every hour, then all devices can sync together without requiring an always on server.
Example : All devices would try to sync at 12:00-12:05, 13:00-13:05 and so on, instead of waiting for 60 mins after their previous sync and syncing at different times.

@Catfriend1 : Can this be implemented in syncthing fork ?
