@lambalicious @jasonweiser Not sure seafile should be listed as an alternative. We couldn't include it on Debian due to copyright sketchiness/plagerism...

Geez... problems never end, do they.
I'm barely active in Codeberg. Unless someone beats me by, say, end-of-month, I might file an issue about it; that said, I'd like to be able to offer at least one (1) functional alternative rather than simply +1'ing to the complains that this or that is Never Good Enough.
@lambalicious Syncthing is what I replaced seafile with, fwiw. Works great!
