    While syncthing is running the window must be kept open. Is it possible for it to work in the background without the window being open?

    • @vladcampos

      The settings webpage on the computer can be closed. As for the Android app, you can swipe it away but Syncthing has to be running in the background. On my Pixel I can make sure it is running by the small ícone at the top of the screen or its card when I swipe down to see the notifications and running apps.

      Are you talking about Windows?
      I recommend to use SyncTrazor for that. SyncTrazor is an enhanced Syncthing, so it has features added like being able to be minized in the Windows utility tray.
      If you are talking about Android, you can just disable notifications of the Syncthing app.

    With Obsidian, could Syncthing run one particular machine on a network, and all other machines (windows, Linux and Android) would connect to that particular machine with the main Obsidian file, just like a central server?

    • @vladcampos
      @vladcampos  3 месяца назад

      That's exactly what I do. I'm always careful, making sure the "server" is always running and, so far, everything is working perfectly fine.
      It's easy to check the status of all machines using the Android app and if I notice something unusual, like a sync taking too long, I wait until it finishes. Other times the "server" is off, because of an expected boot. But since that computer is set to turn on by itself after a boot, it's just a matter of waiting a little and everything comes back to normal.

    Would it not be better to ignore/not sync the settings file (.obsidian) on the Android and have a separate settings?

    • @vladcampos
      @vladcampos  7 месяцев назад

      Although I have never tried that, I think it might be possible. But why would you want to do it? At least here, I don't feel the need to do that because Obsidian has some settings that can be set separately for the mobile client. Are your mobile settings that different from the desktop ones?

    Tutorial was great, but looks like this method does not work for iphone, is that right?

    • @vladcampos
      @vladcampos  3 месяца назад

      Unfortunately, no iPhone app. If you have a Mac you can use iCloud to sync. It works pretty well.

    I get duplicates on my Obsidian (after syncing with syncthing on my oneplus and computer) after writing in a page, do you know why that might be?

    • @vladcampos
      @vladcampos  7 месяцев назад

      This never happen to me. Are the notes open at the same time on both devices when this happens?

    outdated, please make an updated tutorial. the trayzor version of the software is no longer available.

    • @vladcampos

      Respectably disagree in regard to producing a new video. I don't work for Syncthing, and as somebody just sharing experiences online, I can't possibly produce a video for each new update of every software. Furthermore, I just used it the other day to add a new computer to my system, and it didn't change that much. I believe you can still easily find your way with the steps shown in this video.

      @@vladcampos I said please, it wasn't an order. My comment is correct, your video is outdated.
