Phylum is a self-hosted file storage and management platform designed as a straightforward alternative to Google Drive or Dropbox. It focuses on a fast file browser and offline-first web and native clients, aiming to provide core file features without extra suite functionality.

Key Features

  • Offline-first clients designed to work with unreliable or no internet connections
  • Selective sync and fast file browsing/management
  • Users and permissions for multi-user environments
  • File version history
  • Public sharing of files and folders
  • WebDAV access for broad client compatibility
  • Pluggable authentication backends (including LDAP and OIDC)
  • Remote storage backends support

Use Cases

  • Private cloud drive for individuals, families, or small teams
  • File access and sync for mobile/remote workflows with spotty connectivity
  • Central file repository with external authentication and WebDAV client support

Limitations and Considerations

  • Native clients are not yet built/tested on macOS, iOS, and Windows
  • Some advanced administration tasks may require using the CLI

Phylum is best suited for users who want to own their data and run a focused, fully featured file storage service. It emphasizes reliability, offline-capable clients, and practical interoperability features like WebDAV and standard authentication integrations.
