Amazing piece of software, have been using it for about 5-6 years between 4 computers and an Android phone. Never had a single problem with it, it respects your privacy, does only what it advertises, and gets out of your way.

> The following platforms unfortunately no longer get prebuilt binaries for download at syncthing.net and on GitHub, due to complexities related to cross compilation with SQLite:

dragonfly/amd64 illumos/amd64 and solaris/amd64 linux/ppc64 netbsd/* openbsd/386 and openbsd/arm windows/arm

I'm surprised they're dropping windows/arm considering that seems to be the direction things are moving in.

I don't understand why they chose to use github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3 instead of modernc.org/sqlite

Note that windows/arm64 is still supported. Not sure if 32 bit arm was ever relevant on Windows.

I don't if it's the reason but the performance of modernc.org/sqlite is worse than github.com/mattn/go-sqlite3
