Not seeing anything about data protection.

I understand that this is a good idea, but posting a project in HN without a release, and saying it will have , but have not implemented the cool features at the frontpage, like cloud integration, photos, search, tags, extensions, cloud integration(gdrive,dropbox,etc), key manager, etc...

A release would be good, but there are build instructions

Not clear on what the build gets us from the roadmap

Maybe a silly question but: is this by accident or a dark pattern? I hate it when this happens in the wild, but I never know if I should be suspicious of a dark patter or not.

#15I'd be more interested in a modern file system that I can use on xBSD / Linux, Windows, macOS. ZFS comes pretty close except Windows support is still beta quality and ZFS lacks a "tags / label" feature.

#16Pardon my ignorance, I'm slightly technically challenged. But isn't this something similar to ceph cluster or maybe HAMMER2 with an explorer/fileman utility wrapped around it?

This looks like an accident. Even many of the suspicious sites that do it seem to be an accidental side effect. The ones that annoy me the most are the news articles that trigger a history event on scroll. I think they do it as part of a tracking mechanism to detect scroll position, but the result is you have to press back twice to leave. I can't see the benefit, not like anyone is going to press back then say, "oh i guess i can't leave so I'll click an ad".
