SyncThingy uses wireless extensions which will stop working for Wi-Fi 7 hardware

[latenightdef]

I was checking my system log by running dmesg and saw this

[  176.123476] rfkill: input handler enabled
[  178.192076] rfkill: input handler disabled
[  180.199737] warning: `SyncThingy' uses wireless extensions which will stop working for Wi-Fi 7 hardware; use nl80211

I'm not sure if this is a SyncThingy-specific issue or caused by Syncthing itself, anyways can we do something about it?

Oh that is interesting, I will investigate.

Would you mind sharing your current kernel version you are running?

turns out this is coming from QT when using the QNetwork stack (which SyncThingy does) and it has been reported to QT as a bug.

see: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-114336

I don't think there is much else to do other than wait for a patch in QT and then update to that QT version, which the flatpak will do automatically.
