Behind the Code: 20 Years of Unraid

The Uncast Show

In this special episode of The Uncast Show, we go behind the scenes at Unraid as the platform approaches its 20th anniversary.

Co-CEO Tiffany Jones and Director of API Platforms & Cloud Services, Eli Bosley join host Ed Rawlings for an honest and insightful conversation about how Unraid has evolved—from its humble beginnings in a garage to becoming a global platform powering homelabs, NAS systems, media servers, and virtual machines.

We cover:

• Why Unraid moved away from hardware sales
• The shift to a sustainable licensing model
• Growing a fully remote team from the community
• Building the upcoming public API
• Improving onboarding and security
• A brand-new backup system in the works
• What’s next for the OS, the UI, and the distro base

Plus: We answer community questions and share behind-the-scenes clips from our latest team off-site.
