What do y’all guys use for cloud storage, like DropBox, Google Drive, and so on? Ideally something which works even when offline.
I’d like to de-google of course.
Syncthing for me. It is not cloud though - but better.
Well actually the cloud is just another computer, which in fact is what you would have to use if using SyncThing 🤓🤓🤓
Every cloud is just another computer, but not every other computer is cloud.
You could set up your own cloud, yes, but you could also use only ‘client’ devices, without ever having an off-site computer in the network.
Depends on what you want to use it for. As others have said Nextcloud is super popular, I’m also a fan of https://syncthing.net/ to keep stuff synced across devices
I run a Nextcloud instance on my Unraid server.
I’ve been using mega synced folders for most stuff. Works fine.
I’ve have good experience with MEGA, they were offering 50GB free when I signed up, I think they’re offering 20GB on their free tier now. Your files are stored on disk locally while also avaliable on the cloud via their website and mobile apps.
NextCloud running in docker on my server. I can then sync folders from both my desktop and phone.
Hetzner Storage Box.
I sync my entire home directory to a google drive i bought the maximum size plan and only use about 5% of it. All my passwords are in plaintext .csv files and sent to the backup along with scans of all my important documents and financial info. The google password is 1234 and i turned off 2FA for convenience. :)
Nextcloud with a group of privacy advocates bros. 25GB
I’ve been using Filen, seems to work pretty well, it’s got a Linux version of the desktop sync client (comes as an AppImage IIRC) and I dunno if they’re still doing it but they used to have a good price on lifetime plans that were ~100GB that you could stack, so I got a good amount of storage without having to pay a monthly fee.
I use iCloud and Sia.
Proton Drive is working well for me so far.
