OK this helps a lot to give some perspective:

https://github.com/deskflow/deskflow/wiki/History

So Deskflow could be called the current-day evolution of the original Synergy v1! Barrier and Input Leap were forks, but this one is the project that acts as upstream to the company that builds a sellable commercial product based on it.

Now that's clearer, after all pieces of the puzzle fell into place.

Yep, can confirm that this is being driven and supported by the Synergy team. I’m a long time subscriber of synergy, having picked up one of their lifetime licenses many years ago.

I stopped using it but recently had the need to revisit it. Encountered a problem with mouse speed between retina (Mac OS X) and a non retina (Windows) display. Was able to fix this using what was the synergy open source base at the time.

I was working on this, just as the transition took place to Deskflow and the team were helpful in getting this fix, over to the new code base.

Very happy with the interaction and open source support.

Ah nice. I used Synergy 1 until Synergy 2, even paid for it. The whole v2 debacle made me stop using Synergy entirely, and I went back to more traditional methods.

Was recently thinking about how I missed the old Synergy. Time to check out Deskflow ig seems.
