CTO here! We took a lot of inspiration on our latest design from Tahoe LAFS. Big fans. Main difference as I see it is Tahoe isn't as focused on producing a full storage ecosystem (storage node operators, etc), but we do share lots of similar points technically! Encryption, Reed Solomon, etc. Zooko's zfec Reed Solomon library influenced our usage of Reed Solomon for sure.
