I don't see what your issue is with syncthing. syncthing is meant to be cross platform, so using inotify was an obvious problem.

Plus syncthing is an entirely different use case from glusterfs. Think Dropbox, not one-filesystem-across-many-machines.

None at all with syncthing. It's awesome, but doesn't cover my use case. And symcthing does say "Syncthing replaces proprietary sync and cloud services with something open, trustworthy and decentralize" - except as you say it doesn't.
