Comment on A self-hosted approach to long-term file storage and control
expyth0n@lemmy.world 2 days agoAlso, 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.
