andrsschultz rips out the cloud and keeps the files on disk
This fork stops sending documents to cloud storage and saves them to a folder on its own server instead.
The standard build of Mike parks uploaded documents in Cloudflare R2, a hosted cloud-storage service. andrsschultz has cut that out entirely and pointed the system at a plain local folder on whatever machine runs it. There's no toggle and no fallback - the cloud dependency is gone, not switched off, which makes this a clean fit for anyone who wants client documents to stay on hardware they control.
The catch is how files come back out. Cloud storage handed users short-lived, expiring download links; this fork swaps in its own home-grown link scheme instead. That's the part worth scrutiny before anyone trusts it with real matter files. The owner did build in a guard against attempts to climb out of the storage folder and reach other parts of the disk, which is a reassuring sign of care.
