Diode Collab - not fully open source but network and client are all open source. It has dramatic privacy commitment (stores no data on servers, decentralized user-to-user routing, no PII/phone/emails). Diode team just added STUN

I empathize - blockchain's benefits do suffer greatly from the behavior of many practitioners. It is wise to carefully evaluate... However, doing even certain simple things, like securing time ( https://eprint.iacr.org/

Hey there - we'll be posting some videos soon - agree it is not a great experience to have to click or install something without understanding what will happen. Thanks for the feedback.

Thanks for the feedback, we 110% agree - a UI update is coming in the next 2 weeks that is a first step. Please shoot us any specific feedback you have! https://t.me/diode_chain

Hey theon144 - one of the differences seems to be public shares. Diode Drive is able to share files with anyone/everyone even if they don't have Diode Drive installed. (send them a link) e.g. If you need to send a file to someone

It looks like the Worksharing feature that Revit supports may work with Diode Drive - https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/revit-products/gettin... It does not currently do file locking - it leaves that to the a

There are similarities for file sync between shared devices, but one of the big differences is that Diode Drive also enables sharing files with anyone by sending them a link (even if they don't have Diode Drive installed). Any of the

Great feedback on the E2E emphasis - will do that. Check out https://support.diode.io/article/0joq168vfe-how-does-diode-m... If you stop paying, the only thing that happens is you lose the ability to use certain featur

Those are mostly about using a pool of 3rd party storage for decentralized cloud-based storage, and the "clients" for them are more suited to a patient and tech-savvy person. Diode Drive is a small app that can run on almost every

Nothing wrong with using the CLI, but the CLI is a more general purpose tool for exercising / leveraging the Diode Network, while Diode Drive is tailored to file / folder sharing/collaboration/backup. The CLI doesn&#x27

We will be coming out with some easy backup-specific options in the near future - it is a pain today to have to bring on a second peer to backup.

Great question - probably three differences: 1) Syncthing is storage only - Diode has dDrive for storage, but also supports N other use cases as a true web3 backbone candidate (e.g. currently deployed: video streaming, VPN, decentralized we

I agree - HUGE problem is the monetization - the best models today are ad placement and job postings. What if we re-used all the other tech (or nearly all) and: a) ensured that infrastructure providers were paid in a market-economy that rew

The centralization of core Internet governance functions are a key thing to do better. decentralized PKI, decentralized DNS are part of the ticket. The other aspect is a monetization scheme at the transport layer to enable ideas like "

For storage, My Cloud and other centralized systems (e.g. QNAP and Synology offerings) give some usability, but they are limited to storage and still use a central server. We are trying to get Diode tech widely adopted - it is a network th
