I wonder if by native app they mean an actual native app instead of a fake native app (Electron I'm looking at you)
Will there come a time when Electron apps are considered native? I'm not being facetious here, just posing the question that if — say — the horrendous performance issues of Electron were ironed-out, or perhaps a similar standard that isn't such a mess, would you consider it less fake ?
So, feature request I guess?
Using cloud services is scary. But giving a cloud service full access to all my cloud services scares the * out of me. I’m a scared person.
We haven't been actively working on it for a while, so have been considering open sourcing it. If anyone is interested in helping out with that or has ideas as to how to monetize this, drop me a line (hello@starthq.com).

You could have the index created locally or even just do remote calls for search to the respective API's. There's really no reason for this to be cloud-based. Maybe access token synchronization, but in this case, I think setting up all accounts on each device I have once... wouldn't be much of a trouble compared to giving them access to all my storage everywhere.
Never knew I needed that until it appeared on the HN front page. On a more serious note, I can totally see the value this adds. Everything is so fragmented these days. Nice. Franz did something similar for chat, but never really took off, I'm afraid. Hopefully, those guys will fare better.
> Everything is so fragmented these days. Maybe we need a cloud-cloud. One place to put all our files. The unifying interface would take care of uploading/downloading files to/from the individual clouds. Would be nice if all clouds supported a common communication protocol. I for one would like to mount cloud storages as network drives in macOS without third-party apps (aka badly working hacks). One can dream…
We actually just launched the latest version of something similar. However Gurn doesn't require you to setup integrations with all your cloud services, we're based around the URL - https://www.gurn.io/
It is one of those tools that makes your everyday job way easier. I can type 'go instances' and boom I'm straight where I want to be in the AWS Console.
I can't imagine being without it now. It's such a great productivity tool. If they ever shutdown I will build a shoddy version just for myself, seriously.
