Filen – Next Generation End-To-End Encrypted Cloud Storage. Get started with 10 GB of free space.

While I’m waiting for the Linux desktop client for Proton Drive . . . does anyone have any experience with Filen?

As for me, I can’t seem to be able to put Sync to work. Probably I am just dumb but I open Filen Linux app, set an empty folder on the cloud, set a local folder that contains the data I would like to backup and pick local to cloud schema.

As soon as I start sync it says everything is synced. Let it run for a night, nothing. Thougth it could be the local to cloud schema, so intentinally did some changes on local files still it did not trigger the process. So basically nothing is replicated from my local folder to the cloud.

Again, it is probably me being dumb but I genuine give up on automate my backups using Sync.
