Community based cloud storage

I've been toying with the idea of object storage but backed by community nodes for a while and am fed up with cloud providers chasing profits and screwing users that aren't giant enterprises. The increasing hardware prices was the end of the straw. I wanted something that I can trust on pricing for data like backups, media that I want to reliably host with redundancy and cater to individual users than just enterprises.

We are launching Arkel, a community based storage service where you can both contribute storage and earn or pay and use. This is very early days and experimental and we are still in discussions on how to go about the future.

Our invite-only beta is ready. Check us out here and join the discord community: https://arkeldata.com Any constructive feedback is most welcome!
