@hi @carstenraddatz Yup, I know there have been some controversies around that app and F-Droid, didn't dig into it too much, I use Obtainium to fetch the releases from Github directly

@hi @budududuroiu I'm sticking with syncthing-fork from f-droid. Picked that just to use that store more, and I kinda like the progress bar feature
...
@carstenraddatz @hi Besides the progress bar, what's the difference between researchxxl and the F-Droid fork?

@budududuroiu @carstenraddatz @hi i think they are the same.. One is downloaded directly from the github repo, one via the package manager f-droid. F-droid links to the GitHub repo of researchxxl.
@budududuroiu @hi I guess that is the only difference, and possibly only the exposure of it as the feature is in the original code. The release notes imply that much.

@carstenraddatz @budududuroiu @hi Fdroid is the researchxxl version. There is another one in the Google Play Store from nel0x. The background was some shady overtaking of the github repo by researchxxl. I think it is generally trusted at the moment. You can read the whole story here

@hi @carstenraddatz @budududuroiu highly recommend taking a look at basicsync! it seems super well-made and i've been enjoying it a great deal: https://github.com/chenxiaolong/BasicSync (also in the main f-droid repository if that is your jam)
