I am trying to get away from Google and am looking for a decent cloud service that’s integrated well into Linux, either by itself or by using rclone.

I tried Proton drive, but it is laggy and overall not very good.

I just need storage, nothing fancy. Self hosting is not an option tough, at this time.

EDIT: I don’t want to write the same answer 15 times, so I’ll just put this here: Thanks a lot for the recommendations to all of you! I’ve got some reading up to do now :-)

    This is not irrelevant if you just don’t want to bother with encrypting them or with having to deal with a locked folder (I think I understand what that would be, but I’m not sure). Filen does encrypt the folder(s) I tell it to encrypt and sync them to its cloud storage. I have nothing to manage once I’ve setup the sync(s) I need. Different solutions for different needs… and different types of users ;)

      Sure but you still have to believe and trust Filen that they are actually encrypting your files without having backdoors or vulnerabilities. If you encrypt files yourself they can’t do anything with your files. The supposed encryption of the cloud storage provider is a nice extra layer but not a requirement.

      You can just as well sync a locked zip file as long as you create a new one in a synced folder. Cloud storage is a backup to me, I don’t have to access it unless my 2 local storages were to fail.

      Depends what you use cloud storage for obviously.
