When you get the prompt to sign in, you do not have to do it. If orion.file.anonymous.read=true, you should still be able to navigate through folders,
However you need to have the location of folder/file to open (e.g. http://localhost:8080/navigate/table.html#/file/a/Yo/?depth=1) and paste it to your browser.
By default logged in users see just their own workspaces. To navigate through other's workspaces, users need to get these other's URLs somehow.

I raised https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=358571 to let users close the authentication hint box, if they want to stay in Anonymous mode.

I found the following in the server admin guide:

Enabling anonymous read access

By default, each user can only read and write projects they created.
When self-hosting or in small team installations, it may be useful to
enable users to access each other's projects in a read-only fashion.
This can be done by setting the following property in the server
configuration file:

orion.file.anonymous.read=true

I tried it but I can't figure out how it can work. If you are signed
out you get prompts to sign in; if you are signed in there is no way
to address other projects than your own.
