I don't disagree, however, there needs to be some form of security so the average Joe (or their kid) doesn't accidentally press the wrong button and rm -rf the entire device (exaggerating of course, but you get the idea).

Exactly, and this also ties into my first point that the people who know, know what to look for.

I've rooted/jailbroken every single phone and tablet I've owned over the last 15 years. I wouldn't have it any other way. I cannot stand the artificial "security" blocks out in place simply because a company thinks rooted users are somehow cheating or committing fraud or what have you - the people who do that are gonna do it no matter what.

True. Nintendo is extremely cutthroat with their IP, they like going after emulators and similar.

Sony shipped literal rootkits with their software years ago.

Syncthing isn't going anywhere. The Android app is the only thing that was dropped, and that was only because of Google's increasingly-difficult requirements to publish on the Play Store.

Syncthing-Fork is the spiritual successor to the original Android app and can be found on F-Droid.

Syncthing was only ever self-hosted...

You really need to clarify your comment, as it's already causing confusion.

  1. The official Syncthing project is going strong, and is not the same thing as the Android app.
  2. The Android app was discontinued late last year due to Google's increasingly difficult requirements to publish on the Play Store.
  3. Syncthing-Fork is now what Syncthing recommends for Android users.

That's a lot of words to say "we made an AI that totally won't suck up your data, trust me bro"
