I just love watching the cars going through all the banked corners

they're really going all in with reddit

Whelp. Guess my mind didn't even go to that use case. Was just thinking about my personal devices

I mean yes it can be locked. It can all be controlled by the group policy.

But either way, they can monitor all network traffic going through their network.

I mean, Google's nearby share (and the Apple equivalent) are just worse versions than Syncthing.

We already got a competitor that's better. Set it up once and it's done. Regardless if you're near or not, or have a Google account or not.

And yet you can feel that all Google wants to do is break the service.

Absolutely. Everyone could use that reminder

I mean it's not blocked, but if you're connected to their network, they can still see your traffic if they wanted to.

Don't most work Wifi networks prevent VPN use?

Your vision, as long as there is a laneway behind those condo/cafes and having interior bicycle parking on the backside of those buildings.

It's because it's not a cloud, it's direct for sync. When I leave my house, and do not have internet I'll have access to all my files because they've already been saved locally to my phone.

No cloud puts files onto your local filesystem until you download them to your phone manually. A syncing app will put them there.

Yes true, sorry.

I'd be unable to use Syncthing to properly sync my devices on iOS as it is completely locked down. You can't run a daemon that's always running on iOS and multiple apps cannot have access to the same files. Each app has their own little sandboxed playground.
