What could we add to change your mind?

Now see? That's the kind of response that I love.

A few personal thoughts:

- Allow a custom CNAME for files hosted so that they can be shared on a pro user's own domain (you're already CNAMEing to S3, is it possible for you to add additional CNAMEs onto that for users? I'm not sure.)

- Publicly viewable directory listing for a crate? When I saw the name that's how I assumed it would work straight away, that after creating a crate I can link someone to it and they can see and view all the files in it. Realised this is actually possible before I submitted this comment, but have kept it in here to make the point that it could perhaps be a bit clear. Waiting for a user to mouseover the crate name to discover this feature helps keep the site looking clean, but perhaps isn't the best usability feature (at least for new users).

- No ability to change username (nice but not necessary) or email (necessary) in the settings page

- https://

edit: p.s. I realised that in neither of my comments did I remember to mention - nice work, a really nice minimalistic product!

I'd like to be able to change my password. Am I missing something?

More links in the footer, mainly. A page to contact you either by form, email, or phone number. This goes a long way knowing that I have a way to contact you if I have problems. A Team or Company page would be good to learn a bit more about the personal side of the business and to know that it's not a 1-person shop.
