So, nothing to be afraid of or be angry at

Pretty much, yeah. I see why many people are unhappy about it, but it's nothing special.

For me the bigger issue is the price. Compared with the FOSS alternatives, Sync doesn't offer a lot to justify it's astonishing price point.

I understand that they have to recoup the development cost with a much smaller audience, but the high price point compared to the many great free options is just not worth it.
