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.


They don’t sell them on their own website anymore. You can buy them only on stacksocial. Site looks a bit shady, but it is actually legit and in partnership with koofr. VAT is excluded from their payment screen, so do take that in mind. Later on you can upgrade your account to 2.5TB for an additional 300€ directly on koofrs website.
That’s quite an attractive price for a lifetime subscription, profitable from 15 months of use on.
