The new owner of the repo has a fresh github account and apparently has the signing keys from Catfriend1 too.

Time will tell if they are trustworthy, but for the extra paranoid it might make sense to pause updates for a while.

I have heard that. Can it be given run conditions, like only on wifi, and respecting the Android battery saving setting?

My phone has an always on split tunnel VPN to home, so the other sync devices are always accessible. Without the Syncthing-Fork run conditions it chews through mobile data and battery.

    You'll have to brew your own run conditions I think. For me, it's not a big deal, just a bunch of documents and pictures and not much gets added every day. But termux does have access to network state, and I'm pretty sure syncthing accepts stop and continue execution signals, so a shell script shouldn't be too difficult. Another possible option is to use termux:tasker.
