I can't be dependent on such a thing that very well might stop functioning at any time.

No. No I sure don't. There is no such thing aa "first party" There is. It's the original development team of the project. This repo has contributions by 111 different developers at the moment. All to the same first-party SyncThing repo. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) There is. It's the original development team of the project. The one that got discontinued, you mean? It didn't matter that it was "first party" as it still got the axe. This fork has existed for multiple years now, and may end up having a longer life than the "first party" one had. This is not uncommon in the open source space. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] artyom@piefed.social 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) it still got the axe Yes I do remember saying that a few hours ago. may end up having a longer life than the "first party" one had.

Just because you think that third party is more likely to go away doesn't mean it will happen. So yes, you completely avoided my point and continue to do so. You even used "might" earlier. That sounds a lot like may to me. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] artyom@piefed.social 1 point 1 year ago I give up. permalink fedilink source parent [–] sukhmel@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago I'm still using the old app, it may lack some new features, but it was already good enough permalink fedilink source parent [–] Flagstaff@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago Why was it forked? The original was a battery-life vampire and had fewer features. I don't know if it will work with 2.0, though, which is why I'm waiting for an update or 2 on that side before taking the plunge on desktop. One thing's for sure, though; I'm dead meat if one of them fails. (Well, not entirely; I suppose I could painstakingly create a file-transferring script to "sync" stuff, but it'd take quite a while.) permalink fedilink source parent [–] Oberyn@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago Hope so permalink fedilink source parent

[–] AmbiguousProps@lemmy.today 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) There is. It's the original development team of the project. The one that got discontinued, you mean? It didn't matter that it was "first party" as it still got the axe. This fork has existed for multiple years now, and may end up having a longer life than the "first party" one had. This is not uncommon in the open source space. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] artyom@piefed.social 1 point 1 year ago (1 child) it still got the axe Yes I do remember saying that a few hours ago. may end up having a longer life than the "first party" one had.

[–] sukhmel@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago I'm still using the old app, it may lack some new features, but it was already good enough permalink fedilink source parent
[–] Flagstaff@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago Why was it forked? The original was a battery-life vampire and had fewer features. I don't know if it will work with 2.0, though, which is why I'm waiting for an update or 2 on that side before taking the plunge on desktop. One thing's for sure, though; I'm dead meat if one of them fails. (Well, not entirely; I suppose I could painstakingly create a file-transferring script to "sync" stuff, but it'd take quite a while.) permalink fedilink source parent
