Nextcloud file storage is pretty powerful. It handles folders, you can favorite files and folders to get back to them easily, you can tag anything you like, you can share anything either with selected people, or with a public link, you can even add comments to any file, and it supports versioning as well to restore older versions if you want.

On top of that, you can also mount that storage as webdav, in any good file manager. On Linux, with GNOME and KDE, this happens automatically when you configure a nextcloud account in the online accounts settings.

And of course, you have a desktop client that lets you sync files either from a Nextcloud folder, or even from outside that folder, to make sure your files are where you want them.

Syncthing isn't exactly cloud storage, it doesn't store files on a cloud server, it just syncs them from one computer to the other, in real time. So you setup syncthing on your laptop and your desktop, and it will send files back and forth between both devices, without any intermediary in between.

If you're already a ProtonMail customer, you might just want to look at Proton Drive.

It's an end to end encrypted solution, hosted in Switzerland, with relatively strong privacy laws, that don't really matter since everything is encrypted anyways, it's not like someone could look at what you stored, since files are encrypted on your device before being sent to the cloud.

It's also open source, and it obviously integrates well with the other Proton tools, like Mail or Calendar. Even though it's encrypted, you can still share files with others without file size limits, as well as password protect files, define expiration dates for links, and more.

Another open source alternative is Cozy Cloud. It's available for Android, iOS, Linux, macOS and Windows, and it gives you 5GB for free, with additional tiers at 50Gigs for 2 euros 99 per month, and 1TB for 9 euros 98. Still more expensive than Google, but also more private.

It also has auto import features from your phone camera roll to your drive, and can also automatically import certain documents from more than 100 providers, like your bills, health refunds, bank statements, and more, if you want.

pCloud is an option I used extensively in the past for all my cloud storage. It's not open source, but it has optional encryption features if you want to make sure that you're the only one that can look at your stuff. They're on the affordable side, with 500Gigs costing you 50 euros per year, or about 4 euros per month, and 2 terabytes for 100 euros a year, or a bit more than 8 euros per month.

If what you need is massive storage space and you don't want to self host, then I think Mega is your only option. Their base plans are more expensive than others, at 5 euros per month for 400 Gigs, but they can go up to 16Tb for 30 euros per month, which is a LOT of storage for not that much money, considering. The 2TB plan is on par with other options, at 10 euros per month.

And I can't conclude this video without mentioning Zoho. If you don't really care all that much about privacy or open source, but you still want to ditch big tech, then Zoho is probably your best bet. they have replacements for EVERYTHING google does, and a lot more on top of that, and prices are relatively inexpensive.

The Target Is Your Chance at a Future: Let's Overturn Their Chess Board eir.news/2025/06/news/the-targ…

The execution of Turki Al-Jasser encapsulates the grim reality of freedom of expression in #SaudiArabia under Mohammed bin Salman’s rule. The country has turned into a vast prison, where the hand of repression reaches intellectuals, scholars, and anyone who dares to speak freely — under an authoritarian regime that tolerates no dissenting voice. #StopSaudiExecution

Raser jetzt zu Fuß unterwegs


Beamte der Polizeiinspektion Brannenburg führten gestern erneut Geschwindigkeitskontrollen am Sudelfeld durch. Trotz der häufigen Geschwindigkeitsmessungen am Sudelfeld mussten erneut mehrere Fahrzeugführer beanstandet werden. Tagesschnellster war ein 30-jähriger Porschefahrer aus München, der bei erlaubten 60 km/h mit 114 km/h gemessen wurde. Den Fahrer erwartet nun ein Bußgeld in Höhe von über 300 Euro, zwei Punkte in Flensburg sowie ein einmonatiges Fahrverbot.

So I guess that all those israeli who used to go and sit on the top of a hill and watch #GazaGenocide while sitting on a couch, while playing music and drinking and laughing, aren't laughing anymore, right?

Just wanted to show off the lowest end hardware I ever ran Linux on


Single core, 32 bit CPU, can't even do video playback on VLC. But it kinda works for some offline work, like text editing, and even emulation through zsnes! It's crazy how Linux keeps old hardware like this running.

Thankfully though, this laptop CPU is upgradable, and so is the ram, so I'm planning on revitalizing and bringing this old Itautec to the 21st century 😄

in reply to merci3

thats my current laptop

Edit: im exagerating but I really have 20-yr 32-bit Dell laptops running minimal debian linux. and my current laptop is 10+ yrs old Lenovo which I already replaced its screen, rams, keyboard, bluetooth, usb ports... and it's still working flawlessly for daily tasks, video/music editing, coding and programming, internet browsing 😁

#Apple's #News+ is just a pile of 💩

It has a reasonable selection of articles and newspapers, but:

* Shows horrible, clunky ads in the middle of stories 🤬
* Insists on continuing to show articles from rags I've explicitly blocked, like the Torygraph 🤬
* Destroys the relationship between news media and their readers, no doubt to their great disadvantage in the long run 🤬🤬

An update:

"I want to thank this community again for reaching out to help us with extraordinary generosity over the last couple of weeks. Substantial donations enabled Given to get specialist care for her heart condition and both of us to remain in Almerimar so that she could be monitored while undergoing an essential change of medication.

"My own health needed urgent attention, too. And your help allowed me to begin a process that, as it turns out, will need to continue in Italy (where a reciprocal healthcare agreement with Australia will provide me some access to further testing).

"We need a little more help to tackle the more than 1,000 nautical miles that lie ahead of us. Our plan is to complete essential work on the boat this week, then leave Almerimar, finally, next weekend and shakedown Wrack (and ourselves) with a passage of around 160 nautical miles towards Alicante, where our son will join us to lend a hand on the long, open-water passage to Sicily and further west..."

There is so much wrong with this.
Like how can they be so different, they have the same parents.

Why is the younger sister bigger in every direction?

Is this the danger of veganism. Greta has seemingly no boobs at all.

Both sisters retarded in their own way, proves that the parents must be really inept at parenting.

One is a Political retard and the other want's to get into showbusiness but behave like a faggot.

Perhaps both of them are trannies after all...

🔥Rally against the opening of the Amazon Tower🔥

Monday, 16.06.2025 | 10:30 a.m. | Warschauer Brücke 10243 Berlin

Arrival: U1, U3, S3, S5, S7, S9, S75, S85, Tram 10, Bus 300, 347 Warschauer Straße | Tram M13 Revaler Straße

📣 Call to action: asanb.noblogs.org/?p=11913 - @berlinvamazon

#b1606 #noamazontower

🤬 This coming Monday morning it’s happening:

The Amazon Tower at Warschauer Brücke will be officially inaugurated. Kai Wegner has announced his attendance to toast the crowning achievement of the “Mediaspree” development.

🚨The red carpet was rolled out for Amazon a long time ago.

We couldn’t stop them from moving in. But the tech giant clearly feels the strong headwind from the neighborhood and is now trying to polish its battered image with social washing.

If we continue to make their lives as difficult as possible, we might at least be able to deter the next corporation from setting up shop here. Because contrary to all the grand promises of “regional economic development,” all we actually get from this is rising rents and further displacement.

zoomx

works on all X environments


pretty light, reliable simple, and the code is simple enough you can hack even if you don't know C
You can switch window to fullscreen and increments of zooming
Create a shortcut key/bind on your rc file (openbox/rc.xml jwmrc ..etc) for your key pair to trigger it, Ctrl + Ctrl - for zoom in out or Ctrl PgUp/Dn Esc to exit.

There is the classic xorg-xmag as alternative but this is lighter and less complicated

Hier, il a fait 49 degrés dans plus de 13 villes en Iran, et 50.3°C a même été atteint pour une région. En plus d'être bombarbés, les civils voient leurs conditions de vie rendues encore plus difficile à cause du changement climatique.

L'armée israélienne a attaqué les structures énergétiques de l'Iran et il y a d'ores et déjà 40% du pays dont l'accès à l'électricité est rendu difficile ou impossible.

49 degrés, sans climatisation. Des civils qui n'ont rien demandé.

From a provocative teenager to the primary architect of U.S. fascism: How the grandchild of a Jewish immigrant from Tsarist Russia turned into a white supremacist arsehole

His ancestors fled antisemitic persecution in tsarist Russia - the very type of ethnic targeting that his policies now echo. His maternal uncle, neuropsychologist David Glosser, publicly condemned Miller in 2018, calling him a “hypocrite” who has “become the architect of immigration policies that repudiate the very foundation of our family’s life in this country.”

Tara Setmayer, former Republican communications director, warns that Miller can now “use the powers of the federal government to unleash his fascist worldview.” His strategy of “flooding the zone” with executive orders aims to overwhelm judicial and media oversight - a classic authoritarian tactic.

Israeli journalist Ori Goldberg saying that Israel needs this war to re-establish "security". "Security means that Israel can kill whoever it wants...wherever and whenever it wants without paying any sort of price for its actions"
I prefer geopolitical analysts' view that the US is using Israel to fight Iran as part of a wider global objective of encircling, containing and dismantling the expansion of multipolarism. A long time US plan.
