This is embarrassing, but TIL that if copying a large folder from one external drive to another, I should use rsync, not Mac OS Finder.
I thought of rsync as a tool for moving data to/from the cluster, but omg locally it's an order of magnitude faster as well as more stable.

the original issue is antisocial and shitty, but imo this specific situation is one where the author has 100% been fucking up the software with lazy vibe-coded bullshit.
i would personally not use upstream rsync anymore, openrsync & gokrazy/rsync seem much more responsibly maintained.

Regarding the rsync thing: the software is provided as-is.
That thread is not a thread of people raising legitimate concerns, nor is it a thread of people who want to engage with the project constructively.
Open source is a participatory ecosystem, and the solution if you don't like how a project is run are the same as ever: fork, replace, or do nothing.

TIL you can make it so that a client connecting with a specific SSH key can only run a single, specified command when connecting.

One thoroughly underappreciated computer program which made my life oh so much easier is rsync.
Every time I move around lots of files between backups and backups of backups and stuff like that, I pause to ponder how much rsync has made my life easier.
