Curious about thoughts on Garage as an alternative to Minio. It has been in development since 2020. Here is the project git. Documentation looks nice.

Curious what others think of it as a project that has been around for a few years and seems like a solid, open source contender now that Minio has removed most of their community edition functionality.

I had the opportunity to check out a bunch of S3 servers for work. For a quick summary, Garage was much faster than Minio in my tests but lacks advanced S3 features like object locking, versions or retention. Be sure to check what you need before switching.

Also, it's CLI only as far as I know, so the same as Minio will be.
