Porter<p>I've torn down and rebuilt my personal instances of <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/nextcloud" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>nextcloud</span></a> more times than I care to admit. Crashes, breaking upgrades, AIO migration, and now issues in putting it behind <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/tailscale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tailscale</span></a> which Nextcloud REALLY doesn't like. Skill issue? Absolutely. I tore it down for the last time recently and decided it's overkill for what I need. </p><p>I set up <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/syncthing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>syncthing</span></a> this week, and IT'S MAGIC. Sure, I have fewer features but all I really needed was file sync that I could use with my own off-site backup. Throw Markor in there for notes and I'm a happy guy. I can't believe I was using an industrial tractor for a shovel job this whole time. <a href="https://vmst.io/tags/foss" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>foss</span></a></p>
daltuxNão entendi "fechar".<br><br>De qualquer maneira, o melhor é realmente ter uma comunidade mais ampla gerindo qualquer projeto, para uma continuidade mais assegurada. Mas não ter essa característica não invalida de forma alguma um projeto tocado por uma pessoa (individual ou organização). São ordens de grandeza de diferença entre o que é software livre e o que é software privativo.<br><br>O que causaria impedimento, para mim, seria caso fosse obrigado a usar um serviço privativo para usar o programa, que é software livre e que, felizmente, assim como o programa privativo que não lhes garante nem a liberdade de executar como bem quiserem, também roda na minha máquina e manipula arquivos locais, de texto puro (Markdown). Eu nunca usei o mecanismo próprio de sincronia dele, pois prefiro e recomendo o <a href="https://snac.daltux.net?t=syncthing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Syncthing</a> há muitos anos, então não sei dizer nem como funcionaria. Se essa parte remota não é livre, então, aí que deve ser evitada mesmo, tanto quanto o que tanta gente utiliza nas suas próprias máquinas!<br><br>CC: <span class="h-card"><a href="https://floss.social/users/caio" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@caio@floss.social</a></span><br>

kaiaI installed Syncthing on a Ubuntu 24 VPS to sync files with others over internet.

After that, working ok, and the issue fix will be in next release.</p><p>Syncthing is a rock-solid open source synchronizer, and i have expanded it's usage over the years, now to about dozen devices. I'm syncing phones, Raspberries, laptops, desktops, servers, and firewalls, updating off-site backups, and thrown out all Google-, MS-, Dropbox-drives. I even replaced most of rsync due to Syncthing's superior reliability. I have donated to Syncthing.</p>

Jeff Triplett<p>🎊 Happy Syncthing 2.0.0 day to those who celebrate it. </p><p>Upgrading on a Mac was as easy as a homebrew upgrade, stopping the old service, running syncthing by hand to migrate the database, and then restarting the service. </p><p><a href="https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing/releases/tag/v2.0.0" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">github.com/syncthing/syncthing</span><span class="invisible">/releases/tag/v2.0.0</span></a></p><p>**Update:** I had to `brew remove syncthing` and then `brew install syncthing` before restarting the service, before Homebrew would replace the outdated service command flags/options. </p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/homelab" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>homelab</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/syncthing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>syncthing</span></a></p>
