One of the common complaints about Syncthing is the lack of native UI (you use your web browser), and the difficulty in setting it up for non-technical users (copying an executable into a directory, running it directly, setting it to automatically start on login aren't something you'd ask your parents / grandparents to do).
The homepage recommends Syncnthing-GTK (https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-gtk https://github.com/syncthing/syncthing-gtk) (Cross-Platform) and SyncTrayzor (https://github.com/canton7/SyncTrayzor https://github.com/canton7/SyncTrayzor) (Windows only) to help with these pain points. The provide installers, more native-feeling UIs, tray icons, etc.
