it was added last minute without any clear explanation for our users, our fault. i will be changed next update. eventually logging in will be a quick way to connect devices, like Tailscale does

We're early alpha, our product is free and open source

At the end of the day, it is an amazing experience simply just to search and organize files from not just devices, but disconnected drives. Search is lightning fast, the UI is clean and you own all the data, given its local first and peer-to-peer.

Hate it if you must, but we're super passionate about it and are ruthlessly working to reach full stability across all platforms.

Hey thanks for trying Spacedrive! The bug you're experiencing is known when browsing before adding a "Location". We index Locations ahead of time to generate a cache that makes browsing super fast, Spacedrive is, contrary to some replies here, designed for big data, we cache and virtualize everything.

Next update we'll fix the bug browsing non-locations, as those who open the app tend to try browsing first, before adding as a location it seems. It's alpha software so I hope you give us time to iron it all out!
