    They just changed the maintainers? What in this thread does not give you confidence?

      They changed to a random person and gave all abilities to quietly upgrade everyone’s installs to the one maintained by the new random person. Then the new random person disabled things that allowed us to verify the app provided is the same one built from the Github repo. And now the new random person doesn’t communicate well.

  I’ve sometimes found that it just stops syncing on one phone. And I did turn off battery management.

  I need something that’s reliable.

  I use resilio, but recently it used 20% battery in 6 hours overnight, when nothing needed syncing.
