I've added a link to the discord server in the README.md, I thought I'd done this before but it seems to have gotten lost. Committed in master now. I've also reproduced what I think is the issue you have in termux, looks like it blocks the openat2() system call for some reason, so may have to use less secure code paths. It only really matters if you're setting up an rsync daemon on android with chroot disabled (why you would want to do that on android I really don't know ....)
