copyparty VS dufs

I tried to build a Win10 binary with Nuitka just the other day, and was surprised to find that the pyinstaller binary had higher performance. Pyinstaller also had several other advantages, such as producing smaller binaries, and building faster, and Win7 support.

For reference, I kept notes on the exact commands I used: https://github.com/9001/copyparty/blob/hovudstraum/docs/nuit...

indeed; it should be trivial in any language. Here's python: https://github.com/9001/copyparty/blob/a080759a03ef5c0a6b06c...

Sounds helpful if you're using Apache. I use dufs (https://github.com/sigoden/dufs) as a lightweight file server.

I'm with you on wishing WebDAV continued its rollout. These days there are great low-drama server-side deployments like https://github.com/sigoden/dufs. It's run relative too - you could habe multiple dufs processes serving up different directories in different ways. But for WebDAV, you can't simply mount that on the client side for every OS that's equally low configutaion. For that reason, I really like sshfs as it can be initiated from the client-side without a lot of config (just a mkdir of the mapped dir), and it's OK most time despite it's lack of speed and multi-day uptime. I'm on a chromebook now and it turns out that Samba is the easiest client-side tech to use for remote file systems. DAv should've been uniquitous.

WebDAV: https://github.com/sigoden/dufs - has an easy way of launching, and on the releases tab downloads for multiple CPUs/OSs. The rust exe can just be executed from the cli without installation via package managers (wget and tar xf) are all you need.

I use sigoden/dufs. Very simple file browser that doubles as a basic http server. Supports upload, download and basic file manipulation. I feel it's utterly underrated.

So sorry. It only has one f. https://github.com/sigoden/dufs

My solution for public media distribution is Caddy¹ on Scaleway Stardust². 10gb of storage isn't really enough (someday I will write I/O for the 75gb of free object storage), but offers unmetered 100mbps data transfer for $3/month. I setup a proxy through Caddy to dufs³ to upload files.

Anything worth keeping goes on an external HD, buy a bigger one each year and make another copy. I also upload all irreplaceable video to Youtube as private videos; I recently went through and granted a few people access to the ones they wanted to see.
