Garage "unnecessarily complex" . If anything it's the simplest solution in the list especially compared to Ceph or Apache Ozone

I think only "complex" thing in garage is the layout which only matters if you're doing distributed mode.

Tried setting up rustfs today. It was easier that garagehq and it even comes with UI.

RustFS is the poster child in my mind for the worst kind of vibe-coded slop. it might be "simple" but it's not something I would ever trust with persistent data.

last year they had a security vulnerability where they allowed a hardcoded "rustfs rpc" token to bypass all authentication [0]

and even worse, if you read the resulting reddit thread [1] someone tracked down the culprit commits - it was introduced in July [2] and not even reviewed by another human before being merged.

then the fix 6 months later [3] mentions fixing a different security vulnerability, and seemingly only fixed the hardcoded token vulnerability by accident. that PR was also only reviewed by an LLM, not a human.

		I am building an S3 client [1] where I have a test matrix that tests against common S3 implementations, including RustFS. That test matrix uncovered that post policies were only checked for exsitence and a valid signature, not if the request actually conforms to the signed policy. That was an arbitrary object write resulting in CVE-2026-27607 [2]. In the very first issue for this bug [3], it seemed that the authors of the S3 implementation didn't know the difference between the content-length of GetObject and content-length-range of a PostObject. That was kind of a bummer and leads me to advise all my friends not to use rustfs, though I like what they are doing in principal (building a Minio alternative).

		I recently submitted bug about how their own docs tell you to * create rustfs user * run the rustfs from root via systemd, but with bunch of privileges removed * write logs into /var/logs/ instead of /var/log Looks like someone told some LLM to make docs about running it as service and never looked at output

		Ah, progress!
