   Idea: hosting a bunch of weird and cool files in a single directory, all named by UUID, no extensions, you just let people find stuff by rummaging through it

     @esheep idea: all your files (including system files) are in a single directory

     @bunni @lain That's how AWS S3 works, though their UI has directory views if you want but in actuality it's all flat on their side

     @lain@lain.com @bunni@raru.re @esheep@raru.re isnt this the reason why you can't name files things like NUL, LPT1, and some other stuff in Windows? Because old programs written for this type of filesystem expect those device files to just exist on the single directory?
