Is there a non-USA based alternative to DropBox?

Or indeed, any alternative at all?

Thx

(If you feel comfortable doing so, please boost for reach)

@ColinTheMathmo If your primary need is keeping a set of files synced between multiple computers, Syncthing does a good job, while avoiding the reliance on a trusted third party. If your primary need is off-site file hosting, the solution will likely be different. As i don't normally use cloud storage, i am afraid i can't help with that much.

@simon The third need is to make large files available to multiple people, not all of whom are known in advance.

@ColinTheMathmo Some discussion here where I mentioned CloudMe www.cloudme.com https://mathstodon.xyz/@bytebro@mastodonapp.uk/113838805928104881

@ColinTheMathmo Maybe add fro greater reach?

@cymplecy Generally a good call and I had considered that, but I tend to find that questions like this are best passed from hand-to-hand rather than found organically via search.

If nothing useful turned up then I'd've tried again with , but I've had a lot of useful responses already.

@ColinTheMathmo

Your chart is ready, and can be found here:

Things may have changed since I started compiling that, and some things may have been inaccessible.

In particular, the very nature of the fediverse means some toots may never have made it to my instance, in which case I can't see them, and can't include them.

The chart will eventually be deleted, so if you'd like to keep it, make sure you download a copy.

@ColinTheMathmo I heard good things about Nextcloud.

While Software Hut https://sr.ht doesn't do dropbox like things, they are a nice NL-based git etc hosting provider, a good alternative to GitHub
