#22The site breaks the back button in Firefox.
Safari on ios too. I assume it is a bug because it would be a very counterproductive feature to use when presenting a project. As others have said: good idea, but with no release the risk of forgetting about it is high. I have starred many github projects but only gone back to see progress on few of them.

won't fix the bug but right click on the back arrow to get a historical list of where you've been in the current tab and go back from there

#24Javascript UI? dealbreaker
Why does the choice of programming language matter to the end user?

#26I'm not sure if it actually does work this way, but this would be amazing if I could install a small daemon on my NAS/fileserver to do the scanning and indexing, which the graphical client could then pull the results of.

#28aff... 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...

#29Pardon 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?
Disclaimer: I think this project is silly in the face of tools like rclone + borg.
Hammer2's wikipedia article lists dragonfly bsd as it's solely supported os and ceph requires one to... Manage a ceph cluster.
Now the question of whether this is similar to those technologies becomes easy to answer: no, they aren't similar. This tool aggregates external storage providers while the tools you reference require you to be your own provider.
My personal recommendation (if this project interests you) is to check out initiatives like upspin.io and Tahoe lafs
