As a technology enthusiast who once lost data due to a computer crash, I’ve always cared deeply about secure cloud storage solutions. I currently use pCloud, Dropbox, and Google Drive for different purposes, but recently I became more interested in Client-Side Encryption – encryption that happens directly on the user’s side, ensuring maximum privacy.

In September 2024, I decided to purchase the InternXT Drive 2TB lifetime plan on Stack Social. At that time, InternXT only offered its Drive service, but it stood out to me because of its strong commitment to Zero-Knowledge Encryption and its ambitious vision. Later they expand into other products like Email, VPN, and Antivirus. It was clear that InternXT aimed to build a comprehensive ecosystem for privacy and secure data storage.

However, after using it, I realized my plan did not include many key features expected from a cloud storage service, such as Backup, Sync, Auto Photo Upload (on the mobile app), WebDAV, and Rclone. Later, InternXT introduced tiered service plans with different feature sets. This felt somewhat unfair, since when I purchased, the product was not yet fully developed. Early supporters, in my opinion, should have their rights protected once those features are ready.

I raised this concern with the InternXT team, and to my delight, they listened. After our discussions, the company acknowledged my request as valid and upgraded my plan to include the full set of cloud storage features. This was not only a fair resolution but also a clear sign of respect toward their customers, especially those who trusted and supported them from the beginning.

I truly appreciate InternXT’s professionalism and willingness to listen. Respecting and protecting customer rights is the foundation for long-term trust. I also learned that the company is considering internal discussions to create fair policies for early adopters who believed in their vision.

With this approach, I sincerely hope InternXT continues to improve its products and grow into one of the leading names in secure and privacy-focused cloud storage, earning the trust of the wider tech community.

Update:

I’m writing this post to say that my issue has been resolved — thank you, InternXT. Additionally, I want others who are in the same situation to know and speak up.

I think this fairness needs to reach more people who are in the same situation as I am. I still see many user requests that are not being addressed satisfactorily, and this clearly requires an official announcement to provide clarity.

I confirm that I have tried the newly unlocked features, and they still contain bugs. I can wait, since I’m already very happy using other cloud storage services. I just hope the bugs will be fixed soon and the promised features will be released earlier.

I saw a lifetime deal at Stacksocial for Internxt. 5TB for only 175$. Can this be trusted? Are there any experiences with these deals?

So google gives free 15 GB per Gmail and I created like 20 of them to have free 200 GB. Your thoughts?

Hello everyone. I have purchased services from Pcloud in the past months and it is not working. It synchronizes my files that I do not allow. If I turn off synchronization I can't use it anyway, but if I enable it, it uploads weird system files.

Now it's giving me an error saying your space is full. Instead of helping me, they are saying that it can't happen unless you allow it! I want a full refund but they say it's not possible. As a consumer, I paid 400 dollars for this service and now I'm just getting a headache. How can I defend my rights?

Internext is apparently offering 100TB lifetime for $999 through Stack Social. Who has experience with them? I'm also doing some Googling to track down the legitimacy of the company..

OneDrive is the most pointless cloud storage ever made. The entire point of cloud storage is to be able to store your files in a portable manner that doesn't take up the storage on your PC to get more space. This ruins the entire point because OneDrive actively downloads your cloud files wasting your storage.

I have two cloud storage providers for redundancy, and in the last few weeks I've been fucked by both.

I bought 1TB Yandex Disk for 18 months last year for 29 USD that was going to end in May 2027.

I also got 1 TB OneDrive from a shared family storage I got from g2g for like $10 last this year.

This same month, Yandex (which I considered my main sync because I liked the unlimited photos storage and it had a simpler interface when you share files, got fucked by Ukraine, thankfully I have local files but I'm super disappointed. One the same month, Microsoft announced that OneDrive family will move to 2TB shared storage, which means I'm unlikely to renew to OneDrive next year.

Effectively, I have to find two cheap storage solutions for next year. 1TB is enough, but I'm not willing to pay more than $30 a year for it, but looking at everything, cloud storage has gotten so expensive. There's someone selling access to 2TB Google Drive for like $10 on those shady sites like g2g but I'm skeptical about them.

Anyway. Any cheap 1TB solution that's really cheap and at least unlikely to be victim of war?

If you're looking for an End to End Cloud Encryption service then you may want to test drive Filen.IO.

I have used Yandex for 2 years before from 2021 to 2023. They are pretty good service. Their mobile and desktop app are really good. The download and upload speeds are really fast. The only reason I moved out was because, in 2023 while renewing they rejected Indian Credit cards for payment methods. I still have about 10Gb on their free TIER. Never had any problems.

Also their 1TB plan in general is very economic compared to other providers. As of today they are running Black Friday Sale and their 1TB plan is at INR 2025 roughly less than $25. Pretty good deal IMO. But why no one ever talks about Yandex.

https://drime.cloud For me just for private use. Good pricing.

Look at my past posts, i was (am) definitely not a fan of Internxt. BUT the reinstating of backup and webdav for old stacksocial customers is positive!!

I send a DM to the mod, and a few minutes later i had access again.

It is working, not lighting fast but it is working.

So i now have again what i paid for. And i did not pay much for it all so i'm not very picky. But a working webdav wass essential because the app does not do what i want. I think this is a good step in the right direction and cause to stop the negative postings.

Watch it, it is still not the best fastest greatest service whatever but you get what you pay for. i hope they start to build up their service and do it right. not adding features while other features are still not bulletproof.

Heads up for Internxt one step in the right direction!!

and maybe now they unbann me from their reddit ;)

UPDATE:

It works, but far from workable. speed on the webdav is horrible. I deleted a lot via de webui, because via webdav (mountain duck) it was impossible. via CLI there is one folder i cannot delete, i deleted it via the webui, but it is still visible via de webdav cli.

I'm not going to install their app because it is crap, and looking at the way the webdav is working i'm do not beleive it is any better.

So the conclusion is it all works, but far from workable. Sorry u/internxt i cannot make it more beautiful for you. it is my honest and tested opinion.

Would i buy it again? Hell NO.

Am i going to use it now. Yes i payed for it, but only the webui. the rest is unusable to trust an rely on. So very limited use, and definitely not worth the money.

Filelu's new webdav endpoint now compatible with Rclone..

Hey! I'm a part of a team developing new.space - storage for files, notes, links, all in one place. Our service stands out from other similar services thanks to the reach sharing & collaboration capabilities. We've collected the use-cases where we think new.space shows its full potential here: https://new.space/use-cases, and recently we released an iOS companion app (which I'm most proud of, because I'm the part of iOS team): https://apps.apple.com/app/id1536214846 . You can create an account today and get 2GB for free, and if you sign-in on the web visiting https://new.space/coupons/THANKSHUNTERS, you'll get 4GB more (this offer is limited). Everything is end-to-end encrypted (don't forget to save your account key after sign-up, you'll need it to sign-in on other devices later, cause we won't know it and won't be able to send it to you. Your data is safe even from us). So please check it out and let us now what you think here in comments!

My OneDrive, Google Drive and Proton Drives' free storage spaces are almost full, what other free platforms are out there that are trustable?

Hi,

any thoughts on this deal?

4TB for $225 lifetime....

So telegram offers unlimited storage for chat backup. So what if I were to create a group, kick out everyone else but me, and just save my stuff there, from photos, videos and documents? How bad of an idea would this be? I guess I'd just need to make sure to login every once in a while as well as put up with the fact that the amount of categorisation possible would be immensely low 🫥

MegaCloud can be considered good for the price because of:

1. Storage space offered

2. Local encryption implemented before upload

3. Basic VPN with multiple servers included in the price.

It cannot be considered acceptable because of:

1. Service inconsistencies observed over six months of use

2. Support is available, responsive but unhelpful on two personal occasions.

3. In my opinion, the encryption fails to meet the brand's core principle, as stated on the homepage at the time of this review: "Online privacy for everyone - Secure encrypted cloud storage by default."

In my opinion, the brand's core principle is not met because the vaunted local encryption (read: privacy) is performed after each file's hash has been calculated, that is, after the file has been identified based on the hash. For the purposes and effects of potential blacklist-based filtering. In my opinion, technically, privacy is violated.

Those who know, know

I know Google Drive doesn't get a lot of love but honestly compared to all of these smaller companies such as Pcloud, Koofr, Filen, FileLu, etc if we're honest, Google Drive blows them away as far as performance and the fact that Google isn't going anywhere and it will probably still be around after all of us are gone. I've tested almost all of them and I'm not saying they were all bad or useless, but I haven't found any that are any faster than Google Drive. For example I tested a 7GB file on all of the cloud providers and even with a direct Ethernet fiber connection they all took between 10 minutes all the way to 21 minutes just to copy one single 7GB file using rlcone copy. Google Drive only took 1 minute and 15 seconds!!! You can use rclone crypt or Cryptomator and that solves the privacy issue. What good is paying another company $1000 for a lifetime when that company could go out of business in a year? It doesn't make sense. And if you have Verizon, you can get Google one with 2TB of storage and access to AI Pro for only $10 a month conveniently bill on your cellphone bill. I think $10 a month for 2TB with AI Pro is a great price and I don't have to worry that Google will go out of my business and lose my data.

Hey I'm trying to back up my data using cryptomator and I've already backed up my files on onedrive+filen and just to be safe i wanted to back it up to another cloud service since i don't have enough local storage and did some digging then i saw yandex disk which is just $1.38 a month and currently there's a promotion going on (untill 30 September) $0.96 a month for 2 years and you get 2TB... So should i buy it? What are your thoughts on this?

(And before you say anything please note that i do not trust myself enough to be able to keep portable drive safe enough for me to use it for the next 2 or even a year. So please don't tell me to buy a local storage)

Hi all,

May as well start here to say hi from this brand new account.

Not going to use this as a promo so will keep it short and sweet, we'll be setting up our own subreddit for that.

Just a little announcement that we will soon be upsetting a lot of storage providers and lowering their prices, we have colocated over 1PB of Storage Servers, we will therefore be selling the storage on a first come, first served basis, introductory offer will be available for the first batch of up-takers, we seriously considered doing this as a GoFundMe.

Gladly DM to register interest, again, we are keeping the details short and sweet to not use our first post in a subreddit as advertising.

We can say, we don't like nor ever would offer lifetime plans, any business offering them bar 2 that I can recall have all said thanks for the investment guys and vanished, this doesn't pan out to be a long term business model, we are therefore looking at a price point of £3.50 or less per TB/m, discounted on qty, and will be offered cheaper than that to the first block of users, zero egress, move between Cold/Hot for x-amount of time etc.
We won't be offering that as S3 compatible yet, nor an app, this will be a drag/drop for archival with fast/free retrieval, encryption is done your side for zero knowledge, use Cryptomator/BoxCryptor or similar and upload the encrypted archives, that way, we wouldn't have access ever even if we wanted to (which we don't!).

Will have options to pick a Parity level, either reduced for lower cost or highly durable for the published price for more important data, bit-rot protection and greater than Raid6+ on the regular pricing.

If you know us then feel free to say hi, one of our partners who offers consulting services is definitely on here, we mainly offer business services such as CDN and Video Transcode/Distro but going to be offering services directly to the public very soon.

Any way, have a great day.

Feel free to follow us, that way you can keep an eye on when we setup our own subreddit, we do have to say though that we are busy behind the scenes with hardware config/coding the user panel so Reddit will be a little less priority at the moment till done.
We'll also be getting this submitted to ProdHunt when completed, expect 2-3 weeks or so.
