Future plans; is Nebula-Sync going to continue to exist?

[Darkassassin07]

Gravity-Sync shutdown becase Orbital-Sync began existing.

Now Orbital-Sync has shutdown becase Nebula-Sync exists.

Is Nebula-Sync going to stick around for more than 6 months, or do we know what the next one is already? I'd really rather setup whichever project isn't going to give up and disappear again...

Hi @Darkassassin07, fair concern.

Please keep in mind that most open source projects (this one included) are developed in free time, which can make long-term support somewhat unpredictable.

Nebula sync was created because no v6-compatible alternative existed at the time. There may be other options available now, but since syncing Pi-holes isn't a native feature of the Pi-hole service itself, it's ultimately up to each user to choose what works best for their setup.

That said, migrating from Gravity-Sync → Orbital-Sync → Nebula-Sync hasn’t been difficult, and I can't see why moving to another potential solution in the future would be.

Currently I don't have any plans to abandon nebula sync.
