So, this whole thing kicked off because I hit a wall with local storage - it just doesn’t grow with you forever, you know? Plus, putting all my eggs in the basket of other companies felt a bit risky with all the changing rules and government access stuff these days.
What I ended up with is pretty cool: a personal file vault where I’m in charge. It treats any outside storage like it can’t be trusted, and all the encryption happens right on my computer. I can even use cloud storage like S3 if I need to, but I never lose control of my own data.
Honestly, it just kinda grew on its own; I never set out to build a product. I’m mainly sharing it here to see how other folks deal with these kinds of choices.

Also, now that I’ve re-read this (I didnt understand what downvotes mean at first): why does a new project that doesn’t compete with big companies deserve downvotes? I’m just trying to meet tech people and talk about it, that’s all. It doesn’t need money, it doesn’t hurt anyone, and I’m not posting bullshit.
If it doesn’t solve a problem for you yet, that’s fine, it will get better over time. I genuinely want to understand what made you comment like this. And since you’re a moderator, respect btw, but why push people toward hating on it? What’s the goal here, should I delete the repo?
It’s unclear to me what you’re trying to achieve, and it seems like a counterproductive way to go about it, prone to failure, and needlessly expensive for anything of moderate size.
You’re probably over indexing on the importance of downvotes if you’re just doing this for yourself. If you’re looking to make something actually useful to everyone, votes are probably an indicator of interest.
Personally, I read the readme and concluded that that project wasn’t worth my time given the model and AI generated walls of text to tell me it has mobile accessible webpages and end to end encryption. Neither of which is a significant or revolutionary feature in 2025(almost 26) and are basically expectations.
I understand perfectly, thanks for the feedback, in fact it may seem counterproductive, I wanted to release too many features and merge everything to say that it is ultra secure, so I absolutely understand all the comments, I will make sure to improve all of that.
