I started using syncthing after reading all that praise on lemmy. It deserves all the praise it can get, it’s easy to setup and works perfectly.
what “crazy pills” are you taking?

Yea, that’s a lot of ambiguity.
“Doesn’t work”. Well, yea, if you only install it on your phone - it’s a multi-device sync tool.
For Windows I recommend SyncTrayzor, for Linux and Mac it’s Syncthing, for iOS it’s Möbius.
I’ve installed it hundreds of times, the only time it hasn’t worked was between 2 Android devices of a specific version, and this is a documented thing.
It’s ok if you don’t like my comment. But I specified in my original comment that I installed on Cachy as well. I value this convo because (hopefully) it will help future people. If you don’t know what Linux is that’s fine too
