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?

    Syncthing keeps folders in sync between multiple devices, it doesn’t have any concept of users since it’s not designed for that.

    You want Nextcloud or similar ‘google drive’ replacement if you want to share individual files and folders with specific users easily.
