A Unique Permissions Issue

$

Because I don’t want other users on my system browsing my home directory, I set its read bit to 0:

drwxr-x--x 21 greg greg 4096 May 22 19:02 /home/greg

But now when I try to sync a subdirectory, I get the red “Out Of Sync” in the GUI, and the reason given is “permission denied.”

The reason I find this surprising is that I run syncthing as greg:

greg@snapdragoniii:~$ ps aux | grep syncthing
greg      746954  0.0  0.5 1316380 30240 ?       Sl   May22   0:01 syncthing
greg      747090  0.3  1.8 1607468 104020 ?      SNl  May22   1:13 syncthing

Shouldn’t it be able to access those subdirectories? (All the subdirectories are drwxr-xr-x)
