Spacedrive

Spacedrive is a cross-platform, open-source file manager that unifies local drives and various cloud storage services, including popular proprietary platforms like Dropbox and Google Drive, as well as open-source alternatives such as Nextcloud, ownCloud, Syncthing, and Seafile into a single, searchable virtual file system.
