Sorry if it's already been shared, I found this website doing a good job listing alternatives to big tech services.

I'm not affiliated, they also have a bluesky account (it's how I found them). https://bsky.app/profile/euroalternative.eu

Thanks for sharing nonetheless! I'm going to have my family - and myself - try out MevaSearch. :)

Also, I had pCloud before for a few years, until I switched to Internxt for some reason. I cannot for the life of me remember why I switched... Any ideas? xD

Rsync? Or the lifetime deal?

Ah, probably the lifetime deal! I wasn't using Linux back then. I just recently discovered that I can use their (Internxt) AppImage and rsync to "circumvent" all my RAM being consumed when downloading or uploading via browser. However, Internxt's transfer cap is pretty insane... When they told me that I can't backup a 200GB tar archive, I was so angry and disappointed. Since then, I have started think that maybe self hosting is the only viable option, but then that would be within the premises of my apartment, which would defeat the purpose of off site backups. Please excise my rambling. Anyway, pCloud now seems to have a €99 per year plan that has 4TB transfer cap per month, which sounds kind of good?
