Welp, I made a similar thread yesterday regarding Manjaro but I decided to swap to Fedora as my daily driver for stability purposes. Unfortunately since fedora is yet another non Debian distro I need help finding a Syncterm replacement.
I’m my previous thread it was pointed out to me that syncterm has a docker option which I can run on Fedora, but I’d prefer running an app locally if possible.
I tried the Syncterm snap package which boots inside bash, but it doesn’t have ANSI support (which is the entire point of using Syncterm) since I assume it’s simply piggy backing off of bash- hence the 1.5* review on the snap store.
Looking for options… if anyone can help a Linux noob I’m all ears. I tried Alien to convert deb to rpm and fell on my face.
I have no idea what syncterm is, a link would be useful. I can only find scetchy things.
But you write that it’s available for debian. Then just use distrobox and installl syncterm in a debian image and export it.
Literally the first result on DuckDuckGo and Google:

Thats what I said, only scetchy sites.
I’m sorry, but like half the sites for open source tools and programs look like that. Hell, the OpenSSH website doesn’t look that much more legitimate to my eyes.
I experienced that for windows 10 years ago but (almost) all projects on linux have adopted a new style over time.
I gotta agree that there are some very old projects but it just looks scetchy to me because it’s old and just off.
OpenSSH website looks perfectly legitimate. It’s quite similar to the site of the project that brought it to life, OpenBSD.
It’s also a very good looking website, no mobile or material-design bullshit where websites look all the same. It’s a very nice classy looking site.
