So I need some kind of cloud storage for work, however I want to move away from Google Drive (obviously). While I started my deGoogling journey by switching to Proton Unlimited, I am now looking to decentralize services from Proton, especially Proton Drive.

I have already tried the “put it on a hard drive and carry it around” route and unfortunately, it is just not working.

So the two Drive alternatives I have found are NextCloud and Filen. I would love to hear people’s opinions on each (good and bad), and I am also open to any other suggestions.

    I use KDrive with webdav and a Linux client. It works great, no problems at all. The speed is noticeably better than Google Drive ever was.

      Thanks, I might give them a serious try. For the price I can’t find anything cheaper than $5 for 3T a month.

      Do you use any encryption?

        There is no encryption (as in the case of Proton, for example), but Swiss law is a sufficient guarantee for me.
