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

Does anyone of you know filen.io? Do you trust it? The Pricing is so attractive and I never heard of that company before, so it seems a bit too good to be true. What do you think?

I’ve been using the free version for a couple years now. If the app wasn’t so janky I would have upgraded but now. Camera sync sort of works, but only if I manually open the app. It doesn’t function in the background like FolderSync or most cloud storage apps, even when I disable battery optimization. I also can’t manually upload large files easily; usually it fails halfway through.

This is on Android and has been fairly consistent since Android 11.

I’m still on the hunt for encrypted cloud storage that can sync arbitrary folders, like my camera and Signal backup folder.

SyncThing + a Raspberry Pi?

That would… Technically… Classify. In the most painful-to-set-up way possible. You wouldn’t even need the Pi to be publicly accessible on the internet (as long as you are cool with changing its configuration on your local network).
