Dynamic File Access (VFS cross platform)
Currently a dynamic file access (via a virtual file system) os only available for Windows users. This item is about to support dynamic file access for all supported platforms.
Description
When a user accesses a file that's not yet downloaded locally, the desktop client fetches the file from the cloud storage in real-time. This gives the illusion that all files are present locally while conserving local storage space.

I'm a user of the client on Ubuntu 24 and just upgraded to 6.0. Confused by the "Suffix-VFS is deprecated" message that's now showing up in the client. Is VFS simply not supported in the 6.0 releases of the OCIS desktop client, since this issue clearly isn't completed for Linux?
Just checking back in here since I haven't heard anything - why was Suffix VFS deprecated if this issue isn't seeing any work? That's just removing features from the Mac and Linux versions.
