According to the official GoodSync site, the "free" version is limited to backing up a maximum of just 100 files. That seems a lot more like "severly limited trialware" or "sampleware" than what people expect from "freeware".
It's like giving someone a "free" car and telling them they can only drive it 100 meters.
Expected Behaviour
Most people consider "freeware" applications to have sufficient functionality to be useful and not be so severely limited. If the official GoodSync page is correct, it is my belief that this "freeware" app is so severely limited that few people will find it useful, and many people will likely experience frustration and disappointment after installing it.
Please note that I have absolutely nothing against this software; I simply think it is important for Scoop to accurately present application information so that Scoop users aren't misled.
Additional context/output
To use the application as most would likely want to use it, it appears that one must pay an annual subscription fee.
Possible Solution
Can the severe limitations be made clear in the GoodSync manifest and perhaps also have a more accurate identifier specified instead of "Freeware"?
