I just installed syncthing-fork from f-droid and it worked flawlessly as far as I can tell:
- "Export" in syncthing
- Uninstall syncthing
- Install syncthing-fork from f-droid
- Import in syncthing-fork

I feel the existence of an "export" option in a piece of software is noble in this day and age, and I'm so appreciative of it.
It says "look, I don't WANT you to go to my competitor, but I'm not gonna try to hold your data hostage to prevent it."
It's class, as the Scottish would say.
Ty! Can confirm this worked for me as well.
Did it transfer over your folder setups so you don't need to set it up manually?
Yes
Awesome! So happy transition is so painless.
Update: Export and import worked perfectly. Device name, device ID, and all folders I was syncing got picked up.
Who gives a shit about play? How much do I have to pay you to update it in fdroid still?
