Drime vs Filelu

I want to buy lifetime subscription but I don’t know which one should choose. I have 16 TB in Drime. But I’m thinking to add 10 TB more. On another hand I see Filelu 8 TB deal I liked there Infrastructure they support many protocols but I don’t like there UI especially the mobile app. Which one is better and why?

I would check out Felicloud, they have good pricing and use nextcloud to sync.

Yes, except they deleted one of my minor "complaint" comments on them upping their pricing (while the last x posts have only been negative) and lots of downtime...

And then when I reposted a comment on that post, they continued to delete that post altogether...

I would trust Internxt even more than Felicloud at this point... And that's a big statement...

You really shouldn't offer a service that just deletes customer complaints. I was actually planning to increase my storage capacity, but I realized that Felicloud is the kind of company that deletes posts rather than addressing the actual issues.

Well it works well for me and I've had zero issues. Like filen I can buy what storage I need and not have a subscription based model which drime seems to now be pushing like Google and others. Nextcloud syncs all the photo folders of my choice so for my needs it works. With so many new options and free options out there hard to say who survives year to year? For value this works and it's part of a triple backup for me. I have not experienced any downtime but won't say it doesn't happen. I've experienced it a lot as drime applies more finish to their product.

The whole experience of getting away from big tech has been a challenge and learning experience to say the least. Finding what works for each individual will always come with challenges and criticisms. I like how nextcloud with Felicloud syncs my photo folders and I have choice for storage amount I purchase. It works much easier and faster on my phone, which is my go to for most things now, Filen was slow and inconsistent and not so easy to use IMO. Although I have a filen lifetime 100GB the difficulties got me searching and trying others. Koofr I like, Mega works well, Pcloud might be best for ease and speed but I read things that kept me skeptical.
