im on a dinit based system and want to start syncthing as a regular user service. currently, its running as root (which bugs me a lot, as it’s playing on the network) using the syncthing-dinit service located at /etc/dinit.d/syncthing. i know i can run it with a custom syncthing dinit service file. but, i just want to know how to make use of the existing syncthing-dinit service file

thanks in advance

You can use dinit-userservd to run services as user services.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
