I don't get why its a cloud. We synchronize the data with very specific services (gpodder.net, nextcloud) |

I fear that using cycling arrows makes it less clear to users if AntennaPod is currently synchronizing with nextcloud or if it is refreshing the podcast subscriptions. Both would use circling arrows. Nextcloud even has the word "cloud" in its name, so I think it should be okay. |

Cloud is not just AWS. I consider my NC instance my private cloud - an always-on always-connected & publicly accessible computer. And synchronisation in most cases happens via the www (rather than LAN). I also feel that a cloud is also an oft-used symbol for synchronisation, so for an icon in the settings it's well-suited. That said, I agree that the arrows could nicely represent synchronisation. But all in all for the settings the cloud is better than having horizontal and vertical arrows just used above each-other (the setting 'Network' uses the vertical arrows). |

I did a user test yesterday and got the feedback that a star for the synchronization icon is weird. Replaced it with a cloud icon.
