improving download infra
Does something like casync (https://github.com/systemd/casync or https://github.com/folbricht/desync) serve any purpose or provide any advantage to propagating rpm changes over rsync?

Are there any true alternatives to Seafile? (Nextcloud is not an alternative in this context)
Software that comes to mind for syncing lots of small files: git (and other source versioning tools), casync (https://github.com/systemd/casync) and a go implementation (https://github.com/folbricht/desync). Not really an answer and I can't think of a way to shoehorn that into your workflow, but maybe it leads you down a useful road.

Modern graphical file explorer
While Electron wouldn't be on top of my wishlist, if it looked nice and was functional I wouldn't mind at all. I found this project https://github.com/spacedriveapp/spacedrive which uses Tauri and seems to be very interesting, but they haven't released yet

(Ab)using a server library as a GUI - bad idea or only sort of bad idea?
In Tauri (or Axum) the app compiles to a single binary. rspc is the key to this because it allows for multiple transports with the frontend. It supports both Tauri IPC, HTTP or websockets. Our core crate (at ./core) exports an rspc router that is transport agnostic then within the apps (at ./apps/desktop or ./app/server) we expose it with a transport. We use Tauri IPC for desktop and websockets for Axum because we use subscriptions. Then in the wrapper React project (at ./apps/desktop/src/App.tsx) we create the rspc client with the Tauri link, mount its React context and then mount the app package (). You can give the codebase a look if you want cause it’s all open source https://github.com/spacedriveapp/spacedrive

Real World Rust Backend For Web APIs (GraphQL / REST)
Taking a departure from REST and GraphQL, I'd suggest checking out rspc instead of GraphQL and Prisma Client Rust as your ORM. Both have been developed by a coworker and I for Spacedrive, the company we work for, and have provided what we believe is the best Rust + TypeScript stack that doesn't use GraphQL (new GrpahQL server incoming one day tho).

Spacedrive isn't a solution today but I'm holding out hope for it.

Modern shareaza for linux and general purpose wiki
I tried to do this by myself but it was too big of a project just for me. I would like to contribute if someone else decides to do this in rust or python. I was doing this with spacedrive as the base but I don't know enough C++ to translate the existing Shareaza code.

What's everyone working on this week (26/2022)?
I'm working on the Jedi Archives. Right now I'm translating Envy to rust and merging it into spacedrive.

Any SW recommendation to index any kind of file in a External Drive?
