1Password faced immediate backlash from customers this week over a $300,000 pledge in support of a Linux distro created by David Heinemeier Hansson, who has regularly published overtly racist blog posts that include comments calling for deportation of ethnic minorities in Europe. The popular password manager is now a “distinguished corporate patron” of Omacom, the nonprofit foundation that oversees a popular Linux distribution known as Omarchy.

well this became very long. but if you consider how is the synchronized file treated by the clients, as the main database or just a file known to be shared, then it can be figured out. but always verify your theory in practice, and check the docs of your clients if they have anything to say about synced databases.

Thank you for taking the time to type all that. I'll have to save it somewhere more safely and five or another read when setting up keepass.

I've used syncthing before; testing a rudimentary one way syncing images from my phone and laptop to my main PC; and it was okay learning and understanding it.
