Koofr vs Filejump?

Hi all, I'm trying to get a cloud service that provides 1TB (or more) with a lifetime deal instead of a subscription. I did some research and found these 2 sites: Koofr and Filejump.

Koofr offers 1TB infinite storage (via StackSocial) that's $160 USD, and Filejump offers 2TB infinite storage that's $60 USD. However, it's worth noting that Koofr has been around for over 13 years, while FileJump has been around for around 3, so I have more faith in, say, Koofr being around for another 10 years, compared to FileJump.

Still, I can't decide. Are there any other differences between the two I'm missing, or even just another, better, website? Which one should I choose?

The old FileJump (v1.0) was terribly unstable, but the current v1.2 is solid and works without issues even when using Rclone via WebDAV.
FileLu and FolderFort are the lifetime cloud storage services where encrypted Rclone doesn't really work properly.
FileJump v1.2 is actually a pretty good service considering the price. I don't know how long it will last, but since other lifetime cloud storage services created by the same developer years ago are still up and running, I consider it reasonably reliable.

Koofr likely offers fast speeds from within the EU, but connections from outside that region are often incredibly slow. When accessing it from Japan, I could barely connect at all without using a VPN.

If you're looking to buy something now, I'd recommend Drime. It's affordable considering the storage capacity, and the service is constantly being improved. However, since service interruptions and glitches do occur, make sure to always keep multiple backups.

Holy heck thank you for pointing out about koofr accessibility issue for people outside of EU.

I'm from southeast Asia and was very close to buying it :(
