    It's still free for personal use, but is updated commercially. Comes from good people and they should be good for a while.

    Syncthing alone was not working for me to transfer files from work profile to personal profile so installed each syncthing and its fork and it worked.

    back up and sync are not the same function and while syncthing is always very explicit about that, this software (which I have not used) appears to be furthering confusing by conflating the two.
