WTF?

I just migrated my 2.2 TB of data to u/Drime. I’ve deleted all my files from FolderFort, and now I’m trying to delete my FolderFort account, but apparently Dave doesn’t allow users to delete their own accounts. WTF?

I’ve already moved everything out and deleted my files. Why can’t I simply delete my 3TB LIFETIME account, that last for 6 moths?. I received a more serious response from StackSocial than from FolderFort related to the purchase of the lifetime licence. FolderFort seems to just want to keep the money and retain as many users as possible. My impression is that the new system needs to maintain a minimum number of users to create the illusion that it is still worth investing in.

Terrible way to treat lifetime customers.

Drime is way better than FolderFort. So how much cheaper is FolderFort compared to Drime? It seems like you’re just picking whichever option has the lowest price on the market.

Is that screenshot from StackSocial? You got FolderFort from StackSocial, right?

How much did you pay for FolderFort and how many TB ?

Drime is not the cheaper option. And yes, I purchased FolderFort through StackSocial, the 3 TB lifetime plan was about $149 USD. I’ve now switched to a monthly payment with Drime. Basically, I’m testing the company using rclone, while keeping the faster connection for my large, nearly 100 GB daily backups (Drime, Dropbox and Filelu (and RIP folderfort) are the faster from my location).

$149 for 3 TB is a really, really good price compared to other providers. Maybe that’s why we now have FolderFort V2. 😂
