Minio removing the interface for community edition

girish

I have pushed a major package version of minio now. Existing installations won't auto-update . If you want to keep the old feature set, do not update the app. I recommend migrating away to something else (not sure what though), if you don't plan to update since it doesn't seem like it will get any more security updates even.

The change log for the new package:

IMPORTANT: MinIO has decided to remove all administration features from the console. The UI now only has an object browser. You must now use the mc CLI tool for creating keys and setting up permissions.

IMPORANT: OIDC Auth has been removed upstream as well. You can only access MinIO using admin credentials after this update. Access key creation is no longer possible .

What happens with Minio is really a dissapointment and hopefully openmaxio can work as replacement

The only affordable alternative I can see for now is not open source but pretty good, you can get 3T encrypted with S3 compatible object storage API, desktop sync app and more, for E15.00 per month @ mega.nz if that can help

I haven't completely investigated yet only a quick overview though apparently garage could be a quite interesting alternative that could be explored, what's interesting is it integrates with NexCloud, Peertube, Mastodon and Matrix and more stuff, let's check it out.

EDIT: Complete S3 compatibility status here.

Could this be an alternative?

@imc67 It could be a valid alternative...

@micmc this feature "Each chunk of data is replicated in 3 zones" seams to be interesting...

It seems no more binaries . "MinIO community edition is now distributed as source code only. Pre-compiled binaries are no longer provided for new releases"
