Hello. Sia v1.4.1. is here!!!! For the first time ever, it is possible to backup files stored to Sia using just the wallet seed. The process is fully decentralized and does not depend on any third party services nor require any information to be sent to any Sia servers.
This release contains substantial improvements to create a cleaner, smoother, more comfortable, and more scalable experience. While using less memory and computation than v1.4.0, the new version is able to handle more than 20 TB of data spread across hundreds of folders with thousands of files each. The UI has also seen significant improvements, including support for the long-awaited dark mode. File management within the UI has also been significantly improved, and now includes sorting for files, and the ability to drag files into other folders.
The Sia team has been working hard to improve the state of the art, and v1.4.1 is unquestionably the best decentralized data storage product built to date.
