FFS is a sync tool, not a de-doubler or cleanup tool.

And for which purpose is the Option "comparsion"?...FFS is a sync tool, not a de-doubler or cleanup tool. Plerry, 25 Feb 2024, 13:38

Well, you could run a comparison, show only equivalent items, select all on the backup-NAS side, and then delete it

What about being able to detect which files require sync actions ...
Besides that: "comparison" is not an Option; it is a mandatory step in the flow of running a sync.
The only thing "optional" about it is the compare method variant.
