S3Drive - announcements

Hi folks, Our macOS .DMG package (1.4.6) is now signed by Apple, so you shouldn't be required to tweak the security settings in order to run S3Drive. Even though we haven't received any response from Apple just yet, it all just magically started to work. All the best, Tom Related: https://discord.com/channels/1069654792902815845/1069654792902815848/1133116199958483056 https://developer.apple.com/forums/thread/118465?page=3

We've updated our Microsoft Apps MSIX release (1.4.6) https://apps.microsoft.com/store/detail/s3drive-cloud-storage/9NX2DN9Q37NS in case you prefer it over our standard .exe release: https://github.com/s3drive/app/releases/ Tom

Hi S3Drive and MinIO users, If you're using S3Drive with MinIO you maybe interested in this issue that we've just raised: https://github.com/minio/minio/issues/17810 Basically if you face some issues with directories not being properly deleted (when versioning is enabled), please have a look on this Github link, read and either vote or comment. Thank you ! cc @Xenthys @Morethanevil UPDATE 10th Aug 2023. Official MinIO's response: https://github.com/minio/minio/issues/17810#issuecomment-1673581871 (Tl;dr; Their storage format doesn't make fixing this bug viable, they actually advertise it as a feature) (edited)

Good news to our Linux users !

️ S3Drive is now available on Flathub: https://flathub.org/apps/io.kapsa.drive which is an alternative to our deb and AppImage packages: https://github.com/s3drive/app/releases cc @Helios cc @Morethanevil (edited)

Hi folks, We're keen to improve S3Drive encryption to increase file sharing security, as well as protect your data from highly unlikely yet possible truncation attack. We can't make changes to encryption scheme ourselves as we would lose compatibility with open-source Rclone encryption. ... so we've took an initiative and started implementation of these improvements in Rclone project ourselves. There is still remaining work on the Rclone side, it consists integrating changes into crypt command and adding some unit tests. If you have some cryptographic experience and/or desire to help out, feel free to comment on this topic: https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/7192 and/or test it and/or create some pull requests. Envelope encryption: https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/7192#issuecomment-2208803795 Truncation protection: https://github.com/rclone/rclone/issues/7192#issuecomment-2209236732 Stay encrypted!

Hey @everyone, We're planning work for the next year and would like to understand what are the most important features for you ❓ We've developed draft roadmap 2025: https://s3drive.app/roadmap and would like to know what are your thoughts.

This isn't strict document, but indicates general direction of a project, there will be many features, improvements and/or bugfixes that we'll still squeeze in between. Please comment in #general, vote in the relevant feature item in our tracker: https://s3drive.canny.io/ (these are linked from the Roadmap itself) or add a new one, so we possibly prioritize it. Thank you for your enormous support throughout the 2024. Wishing you a happy, healthy, and abundant 2025!
