Hi,

Is is possible to make a mirror sync, but with not erasing the files that have been deleted on the left side before a certain amount of time.

for example, if 'file.txt' has been deleted on the left, 'file.txt' will only be deleted on the right side if the deletion is older than one week.

That could only work if FF runs the task every day for example, and keeps a log of what was found deleted at each run.

Not as you describe.
However, you can use Versioning.This allows you to have all files that are deleted or overwritten by a sync be copied to a self-selected versioning location, retaining the folder structure (relative to the left- and right base location).
You can choose the amount of previous versions that should be retained and for how long those should be retained.
Deletion of retained previous versions will (only) occur during the next run of your FFS sync, according to the rules you defined.
