  • That’s awesome, thanks for tip! I’m at 13GB and tbh it’s not worth 10GB for me to touch Twitter lol, but I’ll check out the other options.

    Honestly I’m just happy to get the word out and support a cloud provider that isn’t (as far as I can tell) fking creepy. I like the company, I’m as confident as I can be in the security of the platform, and want people to develop stuff like that.




  • I use it for:

    • documents I use regularly (contract worker so I’m constantly emailing the same things to accounting departments, etc)
    • current contracts / union constitution and bylaws / published standards / some tables of data I regularly reference for work / stuff I have to reference for workers
    • any “current projects” like a photo set for a project, plans and drawings, documents and literature for a vacation, etc.
    • study materials if I’m going for any certifications, so my waiting in line time can be reading up instead of candy crush or whatever

    Since my mobile is all ios and I otherwise use syncthing, I use sync.com for cloud storage basically for anything that I’ll want without having to get a laptop out.

    I use Bitwarden for passwords and authy for 2fa so that’s all fine.

    This also means I can zero a device and have access to this stuff once I load an app back up on the other side of a border, when that’s a necessary step. Not possible with syncthing.

    Hey congrats! If you’re exploring, I’ve had great success with the free tiers on sync.com (cloud storage) and notion (notes). I also have the iOS sad re:syncthing, which I use almost exclusively now.

    If you want to try sync get yourself an invite from an existing user for free extra gigabytes. They’re a solid, sensible company and their free tier is more than enough for the few things I need handy on my phone.

    I tried both notion and obsidian and for some reason notion just stuck for me. I like that I can share notes with coworkers. Ever note went down the tubes a few years ago, which was a drag.

    Edit: reading that back I sound like a fucking shill. I do not get kickbacks lmao. Just wanted to share the programs that help when I can’t self-host.
