Hey Product Hunt community! 👋

I'm Sayan, the creator of TeleDrive.

Like many of you, I was tired of hitting arbitrary 15GB storage ceilings on Google Drive and paying recurring $10–$20/mo subscription bills for personal cloud backups.

Telegram offers world-class, globally distributed MTProto infrastructure that allows storing files in private channels. But managing files through chat messages is a pain—there are no real folders, no proper file trees, and no easy way to organize large files.

That’s why I built TeleDrive — an open-source virtual cloud filesystem that turns Telegram into your personal, unlimited cloud drive.

🚀 What makes TeleDrive special:

• 🔒 100% Client-Side Privacy: Your files NEVER touch our servers. TeleDrive connects directly from your device to Telegram MTProto 2.0 datacenters using your own Telegram session.

• ⚡ Bypass 2GB Limits: Our smart multi-chunk engine splits large files into 20MB parts and streams them seamlessly without throttling.

• 📁 Real Virtual Drive: Nested folders, breadcrumbs, search, tags, and bulk operations.

• 🎬 In-App Media Streaming: Stream 4K videos, listen to music, and preview documents directly inside the app.

• 💻 Native Across 5 Platforms: Built with Tauri 2.0 & Rust for blazing-fast native performance on macOS, Windows, Linux, Android, and iOS.

• 💸 100% Free & Open Source: Zero subscription fees, zero ads, no paywalls. Forever.

We’re completely bootstrapped and community-driven. I’d love for you to try it out, download the app, and share your raw feedback!
