I'm two years late but your video is absolute excellence. Thank you.

[@lakshent]

This is one of the clearest tech videos I have ever watched. Very well thought-out and presented. Thank you so much!

[@bytemypi2918]

You're welcome. Thanks for your feedback :)

[@arnaudf.67]

Thanks a lot for this full and comprehensive tutorial! I just got into Syncthing and watching this video was super helpful! I hope you have a nice day, good sir :)

[@bytemypi2918]

I'm glad you found my video helpful. Thanks for your feedback, and have a great day, too!

[@esunmanta3988]

Many thanks. This is not just a series of steps to follow. I really understand what I'm doing and I learn a lot. Congratulations.

[@bytemypi2918]

You're welcome :)

[@ebreckpo6563]

Congratulations on this excellent tutorial! Although lengthy, it is clear and concise as you talk about several operating systems. It is an excellent aggregation of several other YT videos I watched, most of these are outdated and somehow controversial regarding setup. After a NAT port forwarding (22000TCP/UDP) it works even through 4G on my mobile phone. I used this primary as a test to see how the sw behaves on a different network.

[@bytemypi2918]

Glad it helped. Thanks for sharing how you got on :)

[@craigbrooksby]

Thank you for such a clear and complete explanation

[@bytemypi2918]

You're welcome :)

[@Lavah]

Thanks! This video is still very clear to follow

[@wildroverphoto]

Great stuff, thank you very much for sharing!

[@bytemypi2918]

You're most welcome :)

Very useful, I may deploy this in my home network and my travel laptop. Looks just as good as Google drive but without the data sniffing and spying.

[@bytemypi2918]

Thanks for your comment. In an age of ever growing privacy concerns it's great that free and open source projects allow us to take back control of our data.

[@theoiv]

@@bytemypi2918 100% agreed.

[@Vova0007]

Thank, bro! Beautiful Technology!

[@bytemypi2918]

No problem :)

[@DJDashzn]

Once again another brilliant video 👍👍👍👍

[@bytemypi2918]

Thanks for your continued support :)

[@DJDashzn]

@@bytemypi2918 do you run your own company If so how can we support you.

[@bytemypi2918]

@@DJDashzn No, I don't have a company. Following my KZbin channel is the best form of support :)

[@LuisLorente]

Congratulations, very didactic video. The only thing I miss from Syncthing is the ability to access (or share) files from non-synchronised devices via web. Do you think it would be possible?

[@bytemypi2918]

Thanks. As far as I'm aware, Syncthing does not support that kind of access. You may be better of looking at something like Nextcloud. I did a video on this, if you'd like to take a look: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eXLXq6KbqteAirM

[@susmitac6346]

How to share specific files ?

[@trevorgardner6330]

Why is it so freaking hard to find a tutorial on sharing directly between two Android devices??!
