[Nix-dev] syncthing questions

[zimbatm]

Hi Sergey,

Have you setup syncthing using the config.services.syncthing.enable = true
in /etc/nixos/configuration.nix ?
The service is creating /var/lib/syncthing by default. This is a better
place to put the files, home folders should be private.
Cheers,
z
