===== Troubleshooting =====

==== systemd user service doesn't work when ecryptfs is enabled for home directory ====

Add the following to your user service file (''systemctl edit --user --full syncthing''):

<code>RequiresMountsFor=/home/your_user_name</code>

==== I added a device but it doesn't show a notification! ====
Possibly your devices still have to discover each other.

  - wait a few (~5) minutes
  - restart syncthing on both ends
  - rinse and repeat, it will work eventually

You can circumvent this by hardcoding (selfhosted) discovery servers and relays.
