The error message reveals what is going wrong here.
You are trying to sync /run/home/mnt/128GB SSD
This does not match the mountpoints as seen in the lsblk output
(perhaps you need /mnt/128GB SSD ?)

If this used to work previously and then suddenly stopped working,
then it must be something that changed in the Fedora
setup/configuration because the mountpoints are now different. This is
not caused by or impacted by Unison.
