I just run it in the terminal, every time I tried their integration it was missing a feature or it was easier to read on a terminal

Use sym link in that case to keep the redirect.

Ok this product will be for project with less than 65k users.

For naming, just name the directory the same way on your file system.

Shareable urls can be a hash of the path with some kind of hmac to prevent scraping.

Yes if you move a file, you can create a symlink to preserve it.

Definity. Though SAMBA supports authentication natively. With SCP and sFTP you'll need another admin server to create users.

I do, password-protected of course. It is the only "native" way I found to get server files access to my iPhone without downloading a third party app (via Files).

Do you really need a database for this? On a unix system, you should be able to: CRUD users, CRUD files and directories, grant permissions to files or directories

Is there a decade-old software that provides a UI or an API wrapper around these features for a "Google Drive" alternative? Maybe over the SAMBA protocol?

Not exactly. I use Fastmail to avoid using Google.

However there are tons of services that require Google (or outlook) to work with your emails.

I would rather have more integrations with third parties rather than this.

My main problem is that I have to put a lot of effort to not use gmail for my business because most of third-parties (like CRMs) work only/better with gmail.

Fastmail team, how about a Gmail compatible API ?

What a bummer the website https://www.calligraphr.com is a subscription model. I could impulsively pay $100 to get my handwriting as a TTF font and be quite happy about it.
