Does anyone have any experience with this file manager? Is it similar to Keep It or Devonthink for Mac?

    Does this file manager really try to be everything at once? What do you need a Kanban View for? Personally I think the pricing is kinda steep for an „opensource“ tool that does not seem very polished… but that’s just my personal opinion.

      Yes, the pro pricing is high. They have a lite version also that is free. I am I interested in the document management mostly. The fact that is cross-platform is nice.

        I keep looking for a document manager for my PDF RPG collection, but haven’t found anything yet that really checks all the boxes. Calibre is the big one that always gets mentioned, but I’ve got something around +10k files and don’t want it absorbing shit into its own filing system, plus its UI was ugly the last time I looked.

    I used tmsu (“tag my shit up”) for a while, but it required too much discipline and then I dropped it.

    In addition, tools like fzf for fuzzy file-search (comes with shell integration to e.g. replace the default history search in bash) and ripgrep-all made this kind of organization unnecessary for me. It now suffices to have a vague idea where a thing is located and I can do a brute-force search in a few seconds.

    The next-level filesystem argument is brought forward every few months, but I’m not buying it.
