For macOS users, even a manually sync is better than none.

Would you consider to add an option to disable inotify_simple ?

That would be a bit tricky on my side because I don't have a mac to test. I can create a configuration to disable inotify_simple and let macOS users decide what to do with it.

Please let me know if that's okay ;)

I mean to not use inotify function at all. The macOS users may still manually run the daemon at foreground each time when they want to upload the changes, and then kill the daemon since it will not know any changing afterwards.

Can't macOS users use the app provided by Microsoft: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/sync-files-with-the-onedrive-sync-client-on-mac-os-x-d11b9f29-00bb-4172-be39-997da46f913f or https://apps.apple.com/us/app/onedrive/id823766827?mt=12?

When you have multiple accounts, the Microsoft app cannot allow you to select which one to start. You will have to start many of the app for each of the account.
