Curious about thoughts on Garage as an alternative to Minio. It has been in development since 2020. Here is the project git. Documentation looks nice.
Curious what others think of it as a project that has been around for a few years and seems like a solid, open source contender now that Minio has removed most of their community edition functionality.
I’m yet to find a project that actually uses it to good use where a regular filesystem wouldn’t be appropriate. The only situation it seems to be intended for is “big data” as in huge huge huge files that would otherwise trip up and choke standard filesystems.
For us regular folk it seems pointless. And I say that as someone who has used it for various things and just not found it worth it.
