I find relatonships are so basic and support many less features than Appwrite's competitors. I can't create relationship with files I can't see buckets in the collections list as well as users.
How can we build a relationship system between files and also users. This is blocking me from going with the appwrite.
I tried supabase self-hosted but jesus, that's not okay for selfhosting. Thankfully appwrite has great self hosting support.
Please help this guy

There's no built in support for creating relationships among Storage Files x User. What you could do is either use Permissions on Storage buckets, use User Prefs or create a dedicated collection for user with permissions so that only they can access them. You haven't described your usecase so this is just a very basic approach.

It will be like a product catalog. I want to assign files to each product document including pdfs, sheets and docx files. and same for images png and jpg. those files will be publicly assessible

I see..
Here's something I've done recently.
Make storage buckets, keep note of their IDs.
Use those IDs in your collection for reference.
Example Bucket -
PS5 Consoles (id: ps5_consoles)
Example Collection Attribute -
bucketId - ps5_consoles.
Then you can list the contents of the bucket as usual.
