Like really I would have expected by 2023 someone would have made something that isn't completely trash. The best one is of course Dropbox so far, but even Dropbox doesn't do full-text indexing of markdown files which is what prompted me to make this great post. Anyway I really home this is the year someone makes a good file sync thing that has a web interface where I can search my markdown files along with all the other files.

The Management posted:you want a cloud file thing where the files are not encrypted and they can just read them? For these ones yeah, anything I need encrypted I encrypt before saving to cloud. The stuff I want indexed isn't high sensitivity.

Bloody posted:the Dropbox ui is unbelievably bad It really is. I get that nobody uses the web ui most of the time and just relies on whatever file manager you're using on the computer you're syncing to but every once in a while I need that web ui and it makes me sad in my heart.

I might gently caress around and set up an ownCloud, so that when I inevitably misconfigure something and lose all my data I can say more like ownedCloud.

Bloody posted:even the file manager ui manages to be lovely with like context menu stuff or whatever. I don’t like it! gimme the old “literally just a folder, that shows up on multiple computers” If you use the dropbox daemon then you get exactly "literally just a folder that shows up on multiple computers" without any of the garbage.

Asymmetric POSTer posted:i havent used dropbox in like 10 years I use OneDrive for work and it's great. No official Linux client so I don't use for personal. I also like having clear separate apps for personal vs work. Work stuff on OneDrive, personal stuff on Dropbox.

Oysters Autobio posted:resurrecting to quote this because im seriously at a loss and too embarassed to ask anyone how to actually organize my file drive docs or actually get windows search to be able to search my docs. Search is why I started this thread! Dropbox does great full text indexing except for markdown files  .My folders look like this: pre:Apps (apps that use Dropbox, e.g. Joplin) Archive (old projects that I keep because I have space but don't need) Documents Personal Kids (school forms etc) DJ (contracts, "press kit" lol, etc) Folders for various orgs I volunteer with Mackup (dotfile sync) Photos Personal photos Important memes Projects (was coding projects but these are mostly moved to github) Public (various publicly shared folders mostly :filez:) Scripts If I were 100% macOS I'd probably take advantage of the labeling system and do smart folders.

My aunt wants to save old photos from the early 1900s for our family 100 years in the future in case they are interested, and asked me what's the best cloud service to use. Actually, she didn't ask that, she said "you have a web site right? Can you put it on there?" So our priceless photos cloud strategy is to yeet PDF scans of photos onto my $3.50/mo vps  (I did tell her the best thing to do is literally print it because who's gonna go through my stupid vps when I die but no)
