Syncthing ... where are the users? (lemmy.ml)

Just installed Syncthing on my Scale server. It looks like it doesn't have users but rather folder IDs that are then used to sync devices. One of the cool features of Nextcloud is the ability to share files with other users. Can this be done with Syncthing?

Personally, I'd really like if it could have different users on its management interface, with their own file shares.

It's understandable why they don't bother, but I would like to share my NAS without running several instances.

Well each share can choose which devices it shows up for, so you don't really need users in that sense. But also if you run it under another user account it will have its own clean profile too.

Then you need NextCloud, not Syncthing.

Run NextCloud on your NAS and you'll be set.
