I hate how my Google Drive has 215GB somehow, (never paid for anything on it) yet I don't trust storing anything on it even if it was encrypted. 😢 i cry ery tim.

@glitcher32 how do you feel about using Cryptomator and cloud drives?

If you have a need to store of content that seems like a good use to use the cloud storage with out giving away too much trust.

On my side I don't wnat to share my individual file meta data (of course not the contents either) with the big cloud providers so the encyption works and they just get a blob.

@Yeet Ive always loved Cryptomator, but I wish it supported NextCloud. I don't care if the files are encrypted on Google's bullshit. They can still access the files in my drive (encrypted ones), delete them without my permission and so on, which would defeat the purpose of having some encrypted vault that google could just delete in my account even if they don't know what is in the file.

@glitcher32 got it. It never occurred to me that the big cloud provider would delete your stuff but, hey, of course they can or just close your account.

@Yeet Yea, all not worth losing files because some big provider wants to or just doesn't like that you encrypt on their servers so they can't snoop around on you like everyone else.
