Yes [they do](https://discuss.freedombox.org/t/cant-install-syncthing-b-c-of-release-file/1697/3), but you might have to wait a day or two for the auto-update to kick in. If you’re installing on new microSD cards, I’d recommend installing the stable images for Bullseye and then restoring from the backups. You can get the images from the respective [download](https://freedombox.org/download/) pages on the website.

As far as I know, both the images are tested and reported to be working.
