Not recommended. If you want to share photos and/or videos you take.
Signed up for 500 GB plan for $6. And it’s too much of a hassle to use.
To share folders with files in it if using Linux, I’d have to manually change the file properties in a web browser. Can change the permissions with WebDAV, but not the file access option. Want to change it to hidden? One at a time in a browser.
People claim it can be done with Windows.
The permissions said 644 for all the files, including the one I shared. Also, the iOS app can’t auto backup photos.
Too much of a hassle to use it, so not worth paying for again.
Canceled PayPal subscription, and deleted my account using the iOS app.
Guess if using Linux, MEGA is the only option. There’s pCloud, but that’s super cheap, and who knows when it’ll stop working.
Also, downloading from OpenDrive is slow.
Self hosting with a 10 Mbps or less upload speed, not a good option.
And according to one Reddit comment two years ago, pCloud terminates accounts, claiming copyright infringement. People who it happened to claimed family photos. Hard to say who’s telling the truth. But pCloud is super cheap, if you get a lifetime plan. MEGA it is, a little under $6 a month, for 750 GB.
I used it, without any issues. If I store anything sensitive, I can encrypt it myself.
Looks like it works with rclone as well, no need for their software in Linux.
It’s in Euros, just like two other providers I looked at. Well, probably got the nice foreign transaction fee then.
Too lazy to use a VPS and host my own thing, also dedicated server would be more private. But not private enough, need it in my apartment. Also, Comcast likes crapping out, and more likely, if I’m uploading. Just downloading can too. Maybe doing both would be even more likely. Or maybe the modem I bought fixed that. The last modem they gave me, started crapping out too. Was only using their modem, because of the free internet, they claimed I had to use their modem to qualify.
No more free internet, and too lazy to return modems over and over again.
I was going to setup syncthing, to send photos from phone to device on network. But the app, said not for backing up data. So decided not to use it. Even though it has some feature of backing up photos.
immich not a great option, if wanting to use Podman, and a version before 5.0. Armbian doesn’t have 5.0. I did compile it on the Orange Pi 5 though. But not doing that on Pi. Wonder how outdated that is now on the Orange Pi.
