Looks like a polished VC funded version of git annex. Not a bad thing, since annex is a bit clunky and unusable for people not using git. I using git annex for a while for all my files (tracking and duplicating files to 2 laptops, external disk, cloud, server). Any one spots a major feature that spacedrive has more than git annex?

It feels more like rclone mount to me. The files are indexed in place and things it provides a pretty interface. That being said a little effort in creating a friendly rclone setup wizard would lap this VC funded app pretty quickly.

Question: does any one know of an existing RClone setup wizard that is for people who are afraid of the command line?

Except that Git Annex has encryption (with OpenPGP support, which is perfect, because I can use a proper HSM) and chunking, and can replicate data across multiple clouds and/or local drives.

This thing mentions encryption, but I think it only exists somewhere on the roadmap.

RClone has a great encryption module too https://rclone.org/crypt/
