Gossa VS Tahoe-LAFS

Reminds me of Gossa.

Looks very promising, reminds me a lot of gossa with a friendlier UI.

In the past I've used an application called Gossa, a filebrowser made in Go. It didn't have an authentication/login screen and he explained it like this:

I host something similar, with Gossa. Not exposed to the internet of course, but works very well.

gossa

As others here suggest, try looking for a more lightweight solution - eg gossa https://github.com/pldubouilh/gossa ?

https://github.com/pldubouilh/gossa I did not test it with android or ios.

Gossa has an archiver build-in, just press CTRL+ENTER to download as archive.

Most simple application: Gossa

For just simple file hosting, I've found Gossa: https://github.com/pldubouilh/gossa

You could also look at Tahoe-LAFS which I keep meaning to try: https://tahoe-lafs.org/

Then there are Darcs and Pijul, which use a theory of patches.

So Pijul manages to have lossless merges by actually storing a directed graph (though of course, you will still need to decide how to flatten that into a displayed file) :

And because uses more information about the history, it is able to do smarter merges (if I am not mistaken, even compared to the OP ?) :

Good news for you: I'm well on the way to solving the problem of better code merging. Specifically, the algorithms I am developing appear to be able to do a correct merge on both [1] and [2]. They also appear capable of merging binary data.

The tradeoff is that people need to write some code to tell the VCS about the format of each binary file type or semantics of each programming language.

The biggest problem is that, like Rust, a new VCS has to be well-executed to make its innovation stick. We'll see if I succeed.

u/nextale shared a couple options: Tahoe-LAFS , Duplicati an Retroshare

Only thing that comes close is https://tahoe-lafs.org

There is Tahoe-LAFS which is decentralized open-source software where you can add remote storage servers (for example on a friends server) to store your data but the server does not have the encryption keys. Your data is encrypted before it leaves your computer (they call it "Least Authority File System" or LAFS because only you hold the keys, the storage servers just store the data). The data is encrypted in-transit and on-rest and supports multiple nodes so even if one of the servers burn down you still have the same data elsewhere. I believe they offer a commercial storage solution but you and your friends could install it for yourselves and run a closed network.

do you know https://tahoe-lafs.org? your goals sound similar.
