1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:03,200 Welcome to another deep dive. Today, we're going to be looking at XBackBone. 2 00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:07,800 It's a, it's a really cool tool, I think for managing and sharing files and all 3 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:11,040 that. And of course, this deep dive is brought to you by safe server. Um, 4 00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:14,400 they're, they're the ones that handle the hosting for XBackBone and can also 5 00:00:14,400 --> 00:00:18,680 help your business navigate all the tricky parts of, you know, the digital world. 6 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:23,480 So if you want to learn more about them, head over to www.safeserver.de. 7 00:00:23,480 --> 00:00:25,240 So, you know, 8 00:00:25,240 --> 00:00:29,880 imagine a world where sharing a big video file is as easy as sending like a little 9 00:00:29,880 --> 00:00:33,760 link, or maybe you're a coder who wants to share a piece of code. Super simple. 10 00:00:33,760 --> 00:00:35,520 That's, that's kind of what XBackBone's all about. 11 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:38,880 And it's designed to be really easy to use, even if you're not a total tech 12 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:42,120 expert. Yeah. So, I mean, it sounds like it's good for beginners, 13 00:00:42,120 --> 00:00:46,040 but it can also handle more advanced stuff too. So what is it about XBackBone 14 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:47,080 that really stands out to you? 15 00:00:47,080 --> 00:00:50,160 Well, one of the best things about it is just how versatile it is. You know, 16 00:00:50,160 --> 00:00:52,120 it's not just stuck on your computer's hard drive. 17 00:00:52,120 --> 00:00:55,160 You can hook it up to cloud storage like Dropbox or Google drive, 18 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:56,800 or even like your own server. If you have one, 19 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,600 it's kind of like a universal remote for all your files, you know, 20 00:01:00,080 --> 00:01:02,960 wherever they are. I like that universal remote. Yeah. 21 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,080 Instead of having like a million different apps and websites for everything, 22 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:08,440 you can just use XBackBone. Exactly. 23 00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:12,000 And because it works with so many different places to store your files, 24 00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:14,760 it gives you a lot of flexibility to choose what works best for you. 25 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:18,160 That's cool. I mean, I definitely have files all over the place, 26 00:01:18,160 --> 00:01:20,040 so that's appealing to me, but honestly, 27 00:01:20,040 --> 00:01:22,440 a lot of file managers are kind of clunky and hard to use. 28 00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:26,040 What makes XBackBone easier? Well, first of all, 29 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,440 it has a simple web interface so you can manage your files right in your browser. 30 00:01:30,440 --> 00:01:32,560 You don't have to install anything complicated. 31 00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:37,080 And they even have this thing called a config generator to help you connect it 32 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:41,600 with sharing tools like share acts. Have you ever used that? I have. Yeah. Yeah. 33 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:43,760 I've definitely had trouble setting up file sharing in the past. 34 00:01:43,760 --> 00:01:44,800 So that sounds like a huge help. 35 00:01:44,800 --> 00:01:48,800 And remember those big video files we were talking about with XBackBone? 36 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:52,040 You can upload the file once and then just share a link to it. 37 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:55,480 You don't have to worry about file size limits or like blowing up someone's 38 00:01:55,480 --> 00:01:58,920 inbox. It's not just convenient. It's also more efficient. Right. 39 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:02,480 And that's where some of the more advanced features of XBackBone come in. 40 00:02:02,480 --> 00:02:04,720 Like let's say you're a developer and you need to share some code. 41 00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:08,280 XBackBone will automatically format and highlight your code. 42 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,600 So it's way easier for other people to read and understand. 43 00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:12,760 That's really helpful. 44 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,160 Especially when you're working on a project with other people. 45 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:19,680 It's so much better than trying to format code in emails or chat apps or whatever. 46 00:02:19,680 --> 00:02:21,640 Yeah. And it's not just code either. 47 00:02:21,960 --> 00:02:27,360 XBackBone also has built in players for video and audio files and PDF viewer. 48 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:30,640 And you can even preview images right there in the interface. 49 00:02:30,640 --> 00:02:34,600 Wow. It's like having a whole media center built right into your file manager. 50 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:38,200 Kind of. It really does streamline your workflow and makes it a lot easier to work 51 00:02:38,200 --> 00:02:39,720 with all kinds of different files. 52 00:02:39,720 --> 00:02:42,120 Okay. I'm impressed. But what about security? 53 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:43,960 I mean, when you're dealing with important information, 54 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,120 security is always a concern for sure. 55 00:02:46,120 --> 00:02:49,920 And XBackBone actually offers some pretty cool features for managing multiple 56 00:02:49,920 --> 00:02:54,680 users. So you can control who has access to your files and what they can do with 57 00:02:54,680 --> 00:02:55,000 them. 58 00:02:55,000 --> 00:02:56,960 So like if I'm working on a project with a team, 59 00:02:56,960 --> 00:03:01,040 I can make sure that everyone has the right permissions to access the files they 60 00:03:01,040 --> 00:03:02,000 need. Exactly. 61 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:05,400 You can even set limits on how much storage space each person can use. 62 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,280 So they've got the security angle covered too. 63 00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:11,000 It really sounds like XBackBone is trying to be like a one-stop shop for 64 00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:12,600 everything related to file management. 65 00:03:12,600 --> 00:03:16,400 You got it. And one of the things I find most interesting about XBackBone is 66 00:03:16,400 --> 00:03:18,760 that it's committed to open source development. 67 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:22,320 Okay. So for someone who's not familiar with that term, what does open source 68 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,160 really mean? 69 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:27,440 Basically it means that the code that makes XBackBone work is available for 70 00:03:27,440 --> 00:03:30,000 anyone to see, use, and modify. 71 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,920 And this creates like a really cool sense of community and collaboration around 72 00:03:33,920 --> 00:03:34,480 the project. 73 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:38,560 Ah, okay. So it's not just some company building a product in secret. 74 00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:42,240 It's a whole bunch of developers and users working together to make something 75 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:42,880 great. 76 00:03:42,880 --> 00:03:47,120 Precisely. And that's a big part of what makes XBackBone so unique. 77 00:03:47,120 --> 00:03:51,120 It's constantly evolving and improving because people from all over the world 78 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:52,120 are contributing to it. 79 00:03:52,120 --> 00:03:55,040 I love that. It's not just a static piece of software, 80 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:58,920 but something that's always getting better and adapting to what people need. 81 00:03:58,920 --> 00:04:01,680 What else is exciting about the development side of things? 82 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:05,160 Well, one thing that gets me excited is how fast they're developing this thing. 83 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:09,240 XBackBone has a history of putting out updates pretty regularly. 84 00:04:09,240 --> 00:04:12,280 So that means you're always getting cool, new features and improvement. 85 00:04:12,280 --> 00:04:15,440 Yeah. It's definitely not a tool that you just set and forget. 86 00:04:15,440 --> 00:04:18,800 It keeps growing and changing with the times. Exactly. 87 00:04:18,800 --> 00:04:21,720 And that's a big advantage of open source stuff in general, 88 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:26,280 because anyone can see the code. Anyone can help make the project better. 89 00:04:26,280 --> 00:04:30,440 You don't have to wait for some big company to decide when to release new 90 00:04:30,440 --> 00:04:32,440 features or updates. That's true. 91 00:04:32,440 --> 00:04:34,960 So it's kind of like a living breeding project. Yeah. 92 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,160 But for someone who isn't a programmer, 93 00:04:37,160 --> 00:04:40,000 how can they actually get involved in the community? Oh, 94 00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,360 there are a ton of ways to contribute. Even if you don't know anything about coding, 95 00:04:43,640 --> 00:04:46,080 you can test out new versions of X backbone. 96 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,400 You can report any bugs you find. 97 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,920 You can suggest new features you'd like to see, 98 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:54,600 or you could even help translate the interface into different languages. 99 00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,680 There's a lot to do. That's awesome. Yeah. So it really is a group effort, huh? 100 00:04:58,680 --> 00:05:02,400 You've got people from all different backgrounds coming together to make X 101 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:03,240 backbone better. 102 00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:04,480 Yeah, it's pretty cool. 103 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:07,560 And you can really see that reflected in the community that's built up around it. 104 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,200 They have online forums, chat rooms, 105 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:14,840 and even real life meetups where you can connect with other people who use X 106 00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:18,920 backbone and share your experiences and, you know, learn from each other. 107 00:05:18,920 --> 00:05:20,000 It's a supportive group. 108 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,580 That's great. So you've got that built in support system. 109 00:05:22,580 --> 00:05:24,560 If you need help figuring something out, 110 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:26,600 but for someone who's brand new to all of this, 111 00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,800 where's the best place to get started with X backbone. 112 00:05:29,800 --> 00:05:35,480 The X backbone website is a great starting point. It's X backbone.apppep. 113 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:39,600 And you'll find everything you need there, download links, documentation. 114 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,760 And they even have a demo so you can try it out before you commit to anything. 115 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:43,800 It's a great resource. 116 00:05:43,800 --> 00:05:44,960 That's super helpful. 117 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:48,080 And what about people who want to go a little deeper, you know, 118 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,480 maybe even contribute to the project itself? Where should they go? 119 00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:54,400 The X backbone GitHub repository is the place to be. 120 00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:55,640 If you want to get your hands dirty, 121 00:05:55,640 --> 00:05:58,520 that's where they keep the code and it's a great way to see what they're 122 00:05:58,520 --> 00:06:00,100 working on, report any issues, 123 00:06:00,100 --> 00:06:03,400 or even submit your own code changes if you're feeling adventurous. 124 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,920 So whether you're just a casual user or a hardcore developer, 125 00:06:07,320 --> 00:06:10,080 there's a way for you to be part of the X backbone community. 126 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:13,760 Exactly. And that's what makes it so cool. In my opinion, 127 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:15,120 it's more than just a file manager. 128 00:06:15,120 --> 00:06:18,960 It's kind of like a movement towards a way of working with your digital stuff 129 00:06:18,960 --> 00:06:23,120 that's more open, more collaborative and more empowering. It gives you control. 130 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:24,200 I like that. 131 00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:28,320 Now earlier you mentioned that X backbone supports direct image linking for 132 00:06:28,320 --> 00:06:30,520 platforms like discord and telegram. 133 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:34,080 Can you explain what that means and why it's so useful? Sure. 134 00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,000 Let's say you're working on a project with some people and you need to share 135 00:06:37,000 --> 00:06:39,880 like a mock-up image with your team on discord. 136 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,800 Normally you'd have to upload the image to discord and then share a link to it. 137 00:06:43,800 --> 00:06:45,600 Right. With X backbone, 138 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:50,240 you can actually create a direct link to the image on your X backbone server. 139 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,520 So your team can see it instantly without having to download anything. 140 00:06:53,520 --> 00:06:54,640 It's super fast. 141 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,520 So it really cuts down on all that back and forth and makes communication much 142 00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:00,240 smoother, especially for visual stuff. 143 00:07:00,240 --> 00:07:03,800 Absolutely. And it's not just for images either. You can do it with videos, 144 00:07:03,800 --> 00:07:07,720 audio files, PDFs, pretty much anything you can store on X backbone. 145 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:10,560 That's really convenient. That takes away all the hassle of sharing files. 146 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:14,880 But what about people who prefer using command line tools, you know, 147 00:07:14,880 --> 00:07:18,840 like the terminal on their computer? Does X backbone work for them too? 148 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,040 Oh yeah, definitely. 149 00:07:20,040 --> 00:07:24,960 X backbone actually supports direct downloads using tools like curl and Reget, 150 00:07:24,960 --> 00:07:28,040 which are popular among developers and system admins. 151 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,760 So if you like working in the terminal, 152 00:07:29,760 --> 00:07:33,040 you can still use X backbone without any problems. 153 00:07:33,080 --> 00:07:37,040 So no matter how you like to work X backbone can fit into your workflow. 154 00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:37,680 Precisely. 155 00:07:37,680 --> 00:07:41,400 It's all about giving you the options and flexibility to do things your way. 156 00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,800 I'm honestly blown away by everything X backbone has to offer.
