Do you know any file hosting sites with a good privacy policy? (lemy.nl)

I found a site that doesn't collect much user data, but it seems to have been down for a while. Attempts to upload the file were unsuccessful.

Maybe you know a site with a good privacy policy where you can get direct links to the file?

A file retention period of at least three months is desirable.

I'll recommend (as I always do, being a satisfied customer) Filen - scroll down that page and you'll see the 10gb free tier.

All you need is a working email - get an anonymous forwarder here or here. All the apps are open source, everything is E2EE, the website doesn't track or fingerprint you and if you decide to upgrade to a paid acct, they accept Monero.

Thank you! I have never heard of it. That's crazy good deal! Almost too good to be true.

They've been around a while now. Their apps (and security) used to be a bit crap but they've upped their game a lot over the last 18 months.

The app still sucks ass.

Desktop and Android work fine for me.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

They work, but they lack functionality.

Almost too good to be true.

My thoughts too.

Looking at their about page my concerns are with longevity.

They've only been a company for 3 years and they are run by three 20somthing dudes with little experience that each hold multiple executive titles.

I'll watch them with high hopes, but wouldn't trust my data with them long term.(yet)
