The amount of times I have managed to slightly misconfigure Syncthing and as a result it _deletes all my files_ is incredible.
Last time, I configured a Receive only folder in device Y, but forgot to mark it as "shared to device Y" in device X's settings.
Net result: directory erased in device Y.
Sure, I still had the copy in device X, but that was gigabytes that needed copying around, a couple hours of wasted time. It's just mind boggling that Syncthing would happily go around deleting thousands of files without warning specially with a minor config error .
