More and more, I think the best replacement for a cloud drive is just Syncthing.
I went through the list and wrote what I use to replace it.
-- Mail -> Tuta
-- Calendar -> I don't use a calendar, but Tuta would be my option
-- OneDrive -> I still use OneDrive, but I'm also using Filen.io and Syncthing
-- Documents* -> ONLYOFFICE (Documents)
*Documents weren't listed or mentioned since they're not cloud services, but I think it's worth talking about. I'm just using ONLYOFFICE and syncing everything with Filen.io and Syncthing.
Syncthing is great, and if you need 'central' storage that's always on just throw it on a server too.
YUP!!!
Syncthing is so good, I don't know why anyone would pay for cloud storage.
Convenience, I suppose. It's not like Syncthing is hard to setup, but it is harder than the centralized stuff, namely because there's talk of relay and discovery servers... That doesn't really "matter" for a regular user, but normies see funny words and give up.
Re: OnlyOffice - It's a Russian product with a Russian version named after the first nuclear ICBM: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/39638530
Instead, I'd recommend LibreOffice ~~or CryptPad~~.
Yeah, I've heard of that... Isn't CryptPad just an online wrapper of ONLYOFFICE?
But yeah, thing is LibreOffice is... Worse. I do have it installed though, and I use it occasionally. I'll try and use it more.
Haven't heard that, nor looked into it, to be honest.
Well, when I open a new document on CryptPad, it opens a web-version of ONLYOFFICE so...
That's disappointing.
I didn't realize until this thread because the only instance I had looked at was https://cryptpad.disroot.org/ , which doesn't seem to have updated to the OnlyOffice version of CryptPad.
