[digiKam-users] Question on multi user environment

[Rick Hallock]

I keep the picture folders on each machine local, and am using syncthing to
synchronize the folder but not the database.  I keep set digikam so so
everything is stored in pic. each database gets updated from the pics.  and
I have a backup (wasted space but it works pretty well)
