Would be nice to have a hint at what is the Source & Destination, idea's attached below

Also, on Linux Mint (GTK+) with the Dark theme is still very hard to use FFS due to the dark text :( (Picture idea's attached below), here is the related dark theme/mode threads

I realize this is not so much an issue in this project, but a bug/limiting in the cross-platform wxwidgets.org that FFS is built on. Still hoping for something though!

Thanks!

Since FFS supports more than simply mirroring from a source to a destination, having the sides designated as such wouldn't make sense. Using two-way syncing would be an example where this doesn't work.

FFS doesn't have a Dark Mode so any issues you are having with it should be directed at whoever implemented it. I wish we had an official dark mode though :c

You're totally right! I suspected my little idea was not gonna hold up (but the hubris of noobs is great), I just started using this great program yesterday after being frustrated with using rsync (systems freezes, reading & remembering command line options). Still learning, but so far very happy! Found this software while looking on https://alternativeto.net/software/rsync/

The dark mode is a system theme, so it probably needs a full chain developer to understand how to remedy it properly, and is quite likely on upstream bug/limitation. Oh, well, I guess this whole thread can be safely deleted with no loss to humanity.
