Forklift Reviews

FileRun mentions (37)

• Getting started

  - Cloud storage: Filerun lightweight but not very feature rich. Source: about 1 year ago

• Does anyone use git or github for syncing stuff between computers?

  Yeah, this is the exact reason not to do it. Plus, there are plenty of solutions out there for this exact thing, like google drive, MS onedrive, or something self-hosted like filerun. Source: about 1 year ago

• New to home server: probably nuking it

  Secure remote access can be facilitated through encrypted tunnels. VPNs, SSH, Cloudflare tunnel, SOCKS, etc. Can all be secure ways of remotely accessing network resources. What you use will vary, depending upon the type of access you require and/or prefer. For file management, there are multiple tools for this task - Nextcloud, Seafile, Pydio, Sandstorm, FileRun, and more available for the choosing. Source: over 1 year ago

• Just finished migrating my old tower servers to a Kubernetes cluster on my new rack!

  For file storage I use Filerun Enterprise, though I might be moving to Nextcloud eventually. Source: over 1 year ago

• any ideas on how to improve low disk speed experience?

  Filerun is an example of an alternative, it offers WebDAV and is compatible with the Nextcloud apps, but it's extremely fast compared to Nextcloud. Source: over 1 year ago

• macOS Finder is still bad at network file copies

  Forklift (https://binarynights.com/) and Path Finder (https://www.cocoatech.io/) are the two big ones I think. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 months ago

• Double Commander – Changes in version 1.1.0

  If you're on Mac, you might also want to try Forklift – by coincidence, they just release major version 4 yesterday. https://binarynights.com/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Total Commander

  There are couple which will have two panels by default, but in my opinion, ForkLift is very native macOS commander-like app -- https://binarynights.com. - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• Finder alternatives for performance?

  Forklift is what I use though never with that many files in a single directory. I know I have used it for ones that had 1000+ files with no slowness. It has a free trial so give it a try. Source: 12 months ago

• DESKTOP2 – A Graphical User Interface for DOS

  Heh, I've been there as well a decade ago when switching from windows to macos. Far manager was also the first program I'd also install on any box. I can assure you, this will eventually pass :) To be fair, far is also not a match to modern file browsers like https://binarynights.com (forklift), especially if you need s3 integration etc. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago
