I expect this would arguably be resolved once the project moves to targeting additional platforms other than Debian 11 see https://github.com/danmons/retronas/blob/main/IDEAS.md
The Debian package installs the syncthing unit as an instance signified by the @ symbol.
An instance is useful when you need data passed (in this case User is a var in the unit file) to a unit where you may be looking to run multiple instances of that unit. The instance inherits the name of the data passed to it to create a unique/dedicated name in this case syncthing@dietpi
From your post it appears dietpi runs from a static systemd service file i.e not an instance and as such when checking for the instance RetroNAS does not find the dietpi service since RetroNAS looks for the instance naming of [email protected]
There may be a better way to do service detection so it is platform agnostic, need to have a think about that.
Also looking at the implementation I don't think the current syncthing implementation is functional as an instance anyway due to the hardcoded gui port in ansible, From the syncthing doco an alt listen port will be chosen if the default 8384 is taken at time of installation so coming through after the fact and forcing the gui port should mean its effectiveness as an instance is negated
somethings well worth looking into.

I installed syncthing using the dietpi-software features
Ahh I see, yes OK that was clear the other day, sorry it must have slipped my mind, and yes our scripts will not currently handle that situation. I will leave this open and revisit the dietpi i deployed here to see if there is a simple solution.

This was related to a bug fixed in commit fe8f0a2
I have an sdcard with dietpi on it now and syncthing now installs as is run as the correct user and can be queried with the status menu.
@bluemistP can you please update your installation and confirm.
systemctl --no-pager --full status syncthing@dietpi

Sorry @sairuk but it still does not detect.
Side question: Is this command enough to update retronas by itself? It looks like it's updating. Currently there's no indication in the wiki on how to update retronas, whether the command below is enough or if I need to run install_retronas.sh again.
sudo /opt/retronas/retronas.sh
Let me clarify my setup: I installed syncthing using the dietpi-software features, my syncthing is not installed using retronas.
Might be something related to how dietpi installs software? I'm more on end-user side so I'm not familiar about these things. In any case, this is how it looks in my dietpi machine:
dietpi@DietPi:~$ systemctl --no-pager --full status syncthing

dietpi doesn't install from repo for syncthing, it pulls a tar from git which also includes the instance unit.
The dietpi project then creates a standalone systemd unit as syncthing.service which is hardcoded to the user dietpi in the file /etc/systemd/system/syncthing.service
root@DietPi:/tmp# cat /etc/systemd/system/syncthing.service

this is the wrong way to approach this, they should be using the packaged systemd instance as [email protected] and using an override file (if applicable) to handle any additional changes they want to make
The defaults are still available for review in /opt/syncthing/etc/linux-systemd/system/[email protected]

Please speak with the upstream project and have dietpi revisit their approach, so they standardise with the syncthing project.
