I just started using BasicSync and I like how it's basically just the regular webUI

I still use Syncthing-Fork. It also is available in F-Droid. There are some other apps like BasicSync or SyncUp in F-Droid. Maybe you can try those.

Syncthig Fork is fine.

I've raised this question a little while ago: https://lemmy.ml/post/47046615

My personal conclusion was to use BasicSync. It's a minimal wrapper around the upstream shared codebase of syncthing itself, and it's so far been very stable and reliable. Security-wise and in terms of risks of abandonment, this approach also makes sense for me. I use it since.

The new owner had posted in the Syncthing forum and has catfriend1. I'm comfortable using the fork.

syncthing fork ran just fine always enabled. Basicsync seems to suck down my battery like crazy

someone posted about https://f-droid.org/packages/com.chiller3.basicsync/ during the "turmoil around the repo owner changing hands, and the lack of communication around it" and i've been using it ever since.

it is lighter and it works as well

I use the version before the change. There's some easy instructions to run it as a Linux package (? Sorry not sure of the terminology) as android can do that. The only issue is you dont have a direct GUI and need to use the web interface. I believe its much smaller and more efficient than any app, not to mention uses the "official" version.

I use Syncthing-Fork and it works great for me. The only problem I have is the "Run for 5 minutes" tile.
