Yeah; there's a reference in the replies to that post about syncthing-fork,
but it's by Catfriend1, but the one in the Android appstore is by Nicola
Hristov.
This is the sort of thing that makes me reluctant to install stuff on my
phone.
Well, termux is technically "app" but I use it (after giving it permissions for my photo/download folders) for rsyncing files I downloaded to this Android 11 tablet and photos/vids I screenshoted or made with OpenCamera (this camera too cheap for having manual mode, so no big point in using OpenCamera over standart app ...) to my various Linux and even hackintosh computers.
Also installed pure-ftpd in said termux, instant ftp for other machines at port 2121.
