nami-apple VS Filestash

Any service that has a backend that gets push notifications from Apple will be told that, and you can look up details - I worked for one company, NamiML that had that as part of the service (and it had web hooks so your own server could react to user with a registered account having services disabled at a particular date).

Nami ML - Complete platform for in-app purchases and subscriptions on iOS and Android, including no-code paywalls, CRM, and analytics. Free for all base features to run an IAP business.

Filestash — A Dropbox-like file manager that connects to a range of protocols and platforms: S3, FTP, SFTP, Minio, Git, WebDAV, Backblaze, LDAP and more.

I made https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash out of the need to collaborate on org mode documents with non emacs users. Once the first release was done, I got to reflect on the infamous top comment of the Dropbox HN to make an attempt at abstracting the storage aspect of Dropbox so those org document could be made stored on a FTP server, SFTP, S3, ....

> we need an abstraction for just this. "Bring your own storage"

I made exactly this: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash and there's an API from which you can abstract any kind of storage: S3, SFTP, FTP, GIT, WebDav, Samba, Local FS, NFS, Backblaze, Storj, Artifactory, .... There's even some funky ones like Mysql from which you have an abstraction where first level folders are databases, second level folders are tables and files are the actual rows

Yes, I rewrote my react app onto vanilla JS using nothing else than rxjs, didn't have the time to document it all yet but it looks like this: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/blob/master/pub...

I'm not familiar with Cloudreve, but FileStash is a similar application often recommended on this subreddit.

I do use them on my OSS work (https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/tree/master/pub...) which is used by many thousands of people

This is what I wish Dropbox was, a simple layer that make interacting with your FTP server easy so nobody has to own your data. The end game is both to be feature complete with Dropbox and be able to change every aspect of the application through plugin so everyone can get out what they want from it.

> but I don't think its the companies responsibility to give back to open source just because they use it

As someone who does quite a bit of OSS, the reality is most people are asking for things but aren't willing to pay for it. Take Microsoft, I had one of their employee asking me to support their azure stuff: https://github.com/mickael-kerjean/filestash/issues/180. When I found out the dude was actually employed by Microsoft, he started to talk some nonsense and ended up running away.
