Hello, all. Does anybody have experience with the LibreCloud hosting service? It seems very attractive with reasonable pricing for a 1TB plan ($15/month) and United States servers close to my area, but I can find almost nothing about it, positive or negative online.

I really need to make sure my files are safe, and self-hosting isn’t an option (at the moment) with my atrocious cable upload speed and data cap. Do any of you use it or could recommend an alternative? I am also looking into proprietary cloud storage, at least temporarily, like pcloud and icedrive.

    You can always get a hetzner auction server with spinning disks and get like 8 tb for like 37ish bucks if you are lucky

      I’ve seen some very negative feedback about Hetzner, and my needs are much smaller. I really only need a terabyte, and I can’t afford more than around $15 a month, especially if I cannot install software.

        I’ve had no issues running with hetzner, and of course you can install software on a hetzner server? You have full root access to the server… Well buyvm is a good option too if you can snag one - get a 3.50 a month vps and get a 5 dollar storage slice for 1 tb of storage on it is a good option and it’s cheaper than librecloud and you get a whole server
