The current version being 2.2.29, I gave it a new try. All is working ok with the exception of "copy to Vault" when applied to a full volume (no issue on individual folders): it still bumps on a non-existent file (.com.apple.timemachine.supported — that once existed but has been deleted locally and on the vault a long time ago...) The other issue I had with v2.2.x was with the invisible folder .fseventsd: for whatever reason, it had faulty permissions and triggered errors. I had the idea of trashing it and MacOS created a brand new one. Fixed. The support team is quite reactive, but they still advise me to stick to v2.1.4 to avoid such issues... 😲

v2.2.6 is out, but beware if you have lots of aliases in the folders you backup (especially to the Vault): the aliases are now resolved, so if they point to GBs of data, you may have a BIG surprise... ;-) v2.1.4 is the last that consider aliases like unknown files. Here's the link to it: https://sync.com/download/sync-packages/osx/2.1.4/cur/Sync.dmg There's a trick, anyway, if you prefer using the current version: rename your aliases with a dot in the end. It doesn't seem to bother MacOS and Sync will ignore the file (an error is displayed for normal sync).

Although I was rather satisfied about Sync, I must say that I pointed out an issue in February, to which they answered "We definitely agree with you", but nothing has been done about it until now... Instead I'm now using Pcloud on a par with Sync: both have their good and bad sides.
