Interesting, would you mind explaining how I could use it to connect 2 (or more) android devices together? Where would it have to be run 'from' or installed 'to' ? From what I've gathered, it appears that it just runs from a central point - ie a server and that it keeps clients updated. Is that not correct?

If it's possible to run Syncthing between multiple devices that would be great, but, I'm not sure - in my head, how this functions between devices. Consider me a novice - could you please explain?

Many thanks for your reply.

Just to clarify then: you use a home server - are you running Syncthing on Linux?

So, if I have an old laptop (win10) would I need to learn linux to use it as an home server - and could it use minimal power when it's always on? The power thing is an issue here in UK.

I have a nvidia shield for the tv, is that a possibility for a server - I go run plex on it?

These might sound to you like daft questions, but I'm just learning stuff. Thanks.

Recently visited York (UK) and they have a fantastic bus system - and they're electric.

That sounds really cool. I currently sync obsidian via a hosted solution on Hetzner using webdav. I'm wondering if I might be able to utilise it somehow as you have - maybe I won't need to intervene as much.

Thanks for the advice.

Does your method use cloud storage? If not, can you please explain to me just how it works across multiple devices?

Good advice 👍

That sounds good, I'll check it out. Thanks.

Good luck, it's kind of feature-rich so if you have any questions, feel free to ask. The dev is quite responsive (on Github) which is good.

If you're not getting a full text feed for articles try changing your feed app (assuming android). I'm using handy News reader (flymm fork on F-droid). It retrives the full article text for all my feeds.
