I have a pi4 and been very happy with the dimensions and low power usage. What could I get for the same price and power use?

Genuine question. Im looking at a pi5 right now.

Care to elaborate? What’s wrong with “hosting” on a rpi?

Yes

I just installed syncthing-fork from f-droid and it worked flawlessly as far as I can tell:

1. “Export” in syncthing
2. Uninstall syncthing
3. Install syncthing-fork from f-droid
4. Import in syncthing-fork

If you can’t see the difference for yourself, I won’t be able to show you.

No, because you’re not the supplier of a password manager.
