Syncthing can store multiple versions of things....

So, when you activate simple versioning, and keep the last 20 Versions, then an error occurs (or malicious actor) and overrides the file 20 times. Then the simple versioning is gone.

Yes with the correct setup you could probably backup via syncthing BUT no one in the comments ellaboborated and mostly just says "i sync to multiple devices via syncthing"
