Open source Google Drive alternatives

Localsend: An open-source cross-platform alternative to AirDrop

“This is a great app! Simple and does the job. The F1TV app is not available in my country on play store on my Google TV. The first time, I logged into the device using the android debugger to install the APK - I didn't want to use an ad-full app. Then I tried LocalSend, and it…”

Localsend: An open-source cross-platform alternative to AirDrop

“Airdrop has not felt reliable to me all the time, and completely fails on anything larger than a picture or short video. Especially if you are storing your files on iCloud and the pictures and videos don't live on your phone. Been using Localsend to transfer bigger files between…”

Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage

“Love rclone. IIRC for years the donation page said something along the lines of "rclone is a labor of love and I don't need your money, but if you'd like to help me buy my wife some flowers that would be greatly appreciated." Just seems like a cool dude. Glad to see he's able to…”

Rclone syncs your files to cloud storage

“Thank you so much! It really helps. My data is on a Synology NAS. It seems B2 buckets support is built into the Hyper Backup Synology software (the one whose purpose it to perform backups), I'm not sure if I am going to chose that or Rclone. But I already found some resources (…”

Copyparty – Turn almost any device into a file server

“Highly impressive work! I noticed this which brought a SMB question to mind: >login doesn't work on winxp, but anonymous access is ok -- remove all accounts from copyparty config for that to work >win10 onwards does not allow connecting anonymously / without accounts Is this an…”

Copyparty – Turn almost any device into a file server

“This is Awesome! I had been using serverultimate on my phone for a few years, and recently limitations made the port binding not work anymore. Copyparty using termux on Android worked amazing!”

Croc: Easily and securely send things from one computer to another

“The main thing I use for ad hoc file transfers is Total Commander for Android ( ). It can copy files to and from a WebDAV inbox on the local network as well as my home directory (although the SFTP plugin I use for that is fiddly to set up and a bit buggy). For copying the same…”

Croc: Easily and securely send things from one computer to another

“That's how croc works, too. You can run your own Magic Wormhole relay. These tools all have the same fundamental design. What's magic-seeming about them is that you can be deep in a prod network, with tightly controlled ACLs and no routable address, and just "wormhole…”

Restic – Backups Done Right

“No. You cannot stick a compression step before restic, because it will mess up the deduplication - the chunker will not find the same chunks, and will not be able to find out which files have same contents (not as easily at least). And you cannot stick it after restic,…”

Restic – Backups Done Right

“I moved from borg to restic because of the native support for B2 buckets (a lot cheaper than dedicated rsync/ssh type cloud file systems). My use case is backing up daily snapshots of my Onedrive (synced locally via rclone). As my important files are mostly immutable (photo…”

“Hello, As requested multiple times before, but closed due to project changer owners etc. here I am requesting once again a method for optional 2FA TOTP for user login. **How I envision it working:** - Add an option so TOTP 2FA can be enabled for users; - Generate a QR code for…”

SeaweedFS fast distributed storage system for blobs, objects, files and datalake

“First, the feature set you have built is very impressive. I think SeaweedFS would really benefit from more documentation on what exactly it does. People who want to deploy production systems need that, and it would also help potential contributors. Some examples: * It says…”

SeaweedFS fast distributed storage system for blobs, objects, files and datalake

“The blob storage is what SeaweedFS built on. All blob access has O(1) network and disk operation. Files and S3 are higher layers above the blob storage. They require metadata to manage to the blobs, and other metadata for directories, S3 access, etc. These metadata usually sit…”

Show HN: RustFS – Migrate from MinIO via simple binary replacement

“Anyone have the same concern with me? will RustFS close source again in a few year like MinIO. then we need to find another alternative.”

“I'm already using RustFS in my project, which rewrites Kubernetes in Rust: . We are working on a distributed filesystem on the RustFS.”

Show HN: Parboard is a dashboard for parse-server with jobs and collaborators

“The open source dashboard has a bunch of functions that are missing from the then hosted parse.com service. I tried to solve some of them with Parboard: - a hosted service means you don't need to fiddle with configuring and deploying a new dashboard every time you set up a new…”

JuiceFS is a distributed POSIX file system built on top of Redis and S3

“We've been using JuiceFS in production for a few months now and I'm a big fan. I've felt for a while that block-level filesystems do not adapt at all well to being implemented across a network (with my personal experience being of AWS EBS and OpenEBS Mayastor). So the fact that…”

JuiceFS is a distributed POSIX file system built on top of Redis and S3

“I've had to test out various networked filesystems this year for a few use cases (satellite/geo) on a multi petabyte scale. Some of my thoughts: * JuiceFS - Works well, for high performance it has limited use cases where privacy concerns matter. There is the open source version,…”

corrupted files in zipped files

“I'm experiencing issues when extracting files form an zip-archive. Downloading the individual .jpg files works fine, but they become corrupted during the zipping process and/or download. Version: 0.22.0 OS: Ubuntu 18.04 Browser: FF 99.0”

Symbolic/hard Link, virtual folders like sftpgo, list directory above if view files by browser support

“## Specific Demand ### Symbolic/Hard Link Support I found that dufs can't list symbolic link entries. ### Dynamic virtual folders like sftpgo When running dufs, you may need add some virtual folders to transfers files. Instead of running another instance and using another port.…”

Experience Longhorn – A look at a defining Microsoft project

“During the Longhorn project (before the reset to use Win 2003 code and create Vista from it)... There was plans for a "Castle" feature which would allow you to roam your profile, data across multiple PCs in the home. Parts of castle made it into Win7 homegroups later, but it was…”

Experience Longhorn – A look at a defining Microsoft project

“«So if you look at UWP stack, either .NET or C++/CX, Longhorn is here just based on COM instead of CLR.» Admittedly without the lost "pillar" of WinFS. Although I suppose these days you could call Cortana a close cousin to some of the original WinFS goals, just from a…”

Welcome to Apache OpenDAL

“Looks great. Very impressed with the vision (although language could be improved), and the "wont implement" decisions made. I would provide a bit of challenge on tenet 2 however. Supporting "storage_class" for S3 is a compromise that clearly has to be made, and yet, it appears…”
