Are you intent in programming it yourself? Does it have to be in PHP? There are several open source file server projects, SeaweedFS and RustFS to name a couple
Are they maintainable long term?
EDIT: Seaweed appears to sell storage used for the project? Can it not be selfhosted?
EDIT 2: RustFS: "The fast data foundation for the AI era."
They can both be self hosted, I self-host Seaweedfs personally as part of my backup strategy.
As far as rustfs's "The fast data foundation for the AI era." I believe that's just marketing to illustrate how capable their product is. Looking at their github contributors history the main contributors all appear human
Ty for the reply, I will look more into SeaweedFS.
