> I have a homelab with 12 PI's, this tool helps me play with files between all of them

did you have your LLM write the Show HN description too?

because you've gone from "We started CallFS" and "our small team" to "I play with it in my homelab"

if this is a homelab-level project, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. but you should be careful not to mislead people, even unintentionally, about the stability/maturity of the project.

especially when the project involves data storage. vibe-coding a game is one thing, if it has bugs then you might miss a power-up or get stuck on a level with no way out. when a vibe-coded storage system has bugs, you're potentially losing or silently corrupting user data.

You're asking me if I use it, I'm telling you where and how I use it. Then you complain how I use it.

Listen, I can totally respect anyones opinion, but this discussion isn't bringing any benefits, it doesn't seem to be constructive at all.

I get it, you're dissatisfied with this project or whatever, and usually I do try to be very accommodating, as you can see I do engage, but at the same time, please understand, this, is an open-source MIT licensed project, it's not the next "save the earth project" and still, you're acting like you're the VC and already lost money on the investment. Like I have to prove some worth or something.

To answer your question, yeah, there were two of us working at this, for a while, then one lost interest, I thought it would still be fair to say "our small team".

As for the losing data or any other such things, great idea, I will add that there is always a possibility of losing data, just like with NTFS, with AppleFS, or any other FS no matter who developed it or supports it. But it is a good point.

As far as this comment thread goes, I will personally refrain from future comments, as I believe it doesn't serve any good purpose other than nit picking.

Thank you.

They’re clearly not complaining at how you use it, they’re calling out your misrepresentations. These are ethical issues and you should examine your own moral framework.
