I think for any kind of widespread adoption we're a couple of decades out regarding feasibility. The problem for managing your own thing is not necessarily the usability of current software (although that too), but education of the masses regarding technology.

It'd be great if schools taught foundations like how the internet works (not in-depth, but basics like what a server is) and how to create your own server. People would get gradually less afraid of technology and that'd enable systems like this.

As it stands, people are just more comfortable using walled gardens because their data is managed for them and they don't bear any responsibility for it.

Been using tsgo for months and unfortunately had many random crashes, the speedup made it worth it though. Looking forward to try the release candidate.

Besides the OneDrive hate here, this doesn't seem that newsworthy? It reads like the storage of users that have their license revoked will be deleted. Which is how I'd expect the service to work. If anything, it's weird that their files were kept.

There are actually really good free backup solutions, like https://kopia.io/ Tried a couple of paid ones first because I didn't know about them, but this is even better

It sounds like the same workflow that GitButlers UI has. Can anyone with more knowledge than me confirm or deny that?
