From the first line of the link:
>> Spacedrive is an open source cross-platform file manager, powered by a virtual distributed filesystem (VDFS) written in Rust.
You log in because it’s a remote file system. Think Dropbox, not file explorer.
> How does it work?
> Using a "Virtual Distributed Filesystem" (VDFS), in other words; a decentralized database that emulates a filesystem. It indexes hardware filesystems to create a master database that is synchronized in realtime between your devices running Spacedrive.
> What makes this different to Dropbox or Google Drive?
> It is not a storage provider, Spacedrive is simply a database that exists on top of existing storage layers, from cloud services like Dropbox, Google Drive and iCloud to physical devices and external drives you already own. It doesn't provide you more storage, rather a supercharged view of your existing storage.
So more like Syncthing? Or rather Windows File Sharing/Samba? I don't really get it
