A word of caution for anyone planning to use syncthing for backups. Syncthing is designed as a sync solution but not explicitly for backups. You need some extra setup on top of the defaults for building a reliable backup solution. If not setup correctly, any "mistakes" from one of the devices will automatically be synced to other devices and cannot be retrieved back. In the case of a lost/stolen device, make sure you remove the device as soon as possible. If not a bad actor now possessing the device can delete and sync that back to your "back-up" devices too.
