NATS VS syncthing

(note that NATS Streaming is a now deprecated predecessor to NATS JetStream)

Pull does have advantages over push (e.g. one-to-one flow control since the transfer of the messages is initiated by the client (pull requests)), and they are basically functionally equivalent (only thing push can do that pull can not is send a copy of all the message to all the subscribers, should you ever need it). They both exists because historically push came first and then pull later).

As a developper using NATS JetStream you should really not have to worry about push or pull, you should just care whether you want to consume the messages via call back or via an iterator or via fetching batches, after that whether pull or push is being used underneath the covers is irrelevant to you.

And this is exactly how it is in the new JetStream API (https://github.com/nats-io/nats.go/tree/main/jetstream#readm...) you don't have to worry about push/pull anymore and you can consume in any of the 3 ways described above (callback, iterator, fetch batch) it's all a lot simpler and easier to use.

Install the nats.go package

Now that our NATS server is running, we'll be using Go and Node.js clients to connect to it for simple demonstration. Not familiar with Go or Node? Don't worry NATS has clients available in over 40 languages!

You could start by looking/reading how it is implemented in production ala https://github.com/nats-io/nats.go

My biggest gripe with Firefox on Android is that sometimes I enter a domain in the address bar, press enter and nothing happens.

This behaviour seems to be erratic and only affects a few websites, such as https://forum.syncthing.net.

Closing the tab or using a different one doesn't solve the problem. I need to force close the app to fix this.

Syncthing has had on their roadmap for 9.5 years to support iOS but hasn’t due to lack of interest by the developers to devote the time to make it.

macOS is supported though.

And Syncthing via 3rd parties does support iOS.

I haven't been able to access https://docs.syncthing.net or https://forum.syncthing.net/ but I was able to access some of the docs via github. I think I've set it up according to the docs. The logs contain lots of messages like:

Malware built into iOS makes it impossible to install Syncthing[0], which is a problem for most of the people who use iCloud tp sync their files.

You could try to force QUIC which should handle latency a bit better. The priority of TCP/QUIC will be configurable with the upcoming v1.23.5 release:

I was thinking about SyncThing, https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing but it's a file synchronization tool, meaning every node would have a full copy, and it would propagate deletes from one node to another.
