People with files spread across laptops, NAS drives, and cloud accounts who want one search.

Why it deserves attention

Spacedrive indexes files across local disks, external drives, and cloud sources without moving them, then presents one library with tags, search, and previews. It is built on a Rust core with a local-first database, so metadata stays on your machine and sync is optional. Version 2.0 runs on macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS, and Android, and the project has 39,000 GitHub stars under Apache-2.0. It is still evolving quickly, so expect occasional rough edges and check that your cloud providers are supported.
