I block + and alias emails whenever possible (often used by spammers LOL). Then again - I don't send spam (or "newsletters") or sell user data.

(Quote) That is Windows-only? Are the backups it makes platform-agnostic, or must you use the MailStore application to read or restore them?
-
(Quote) AFAIK German language university students in Serbia used to learn this method (not sure about now) while it was not taught in natural science departments (again, not sure about current curriculums). I find that to be a bit ironic. :)

(Quote) It may be useful for (cold) storage. Mega works OK for on-the-fly sync (small files I edit regularly).
-
(Quote) Works OK for normal sized files (faster than iCloud or Mega.nz). However, for syncing one huge file (.zip or a huge video and similar) it is a bit slower than iCloud and faster than Mega.nz, while for syncing many very small files changed (O…

Windows sync client is very frustrating - to the point of being useless. Linux is noticeably better if not completely fault-proof. Guess I'll need to find a different way to sync my Obsidian notes. Looks like another monthly subscription the way i…

(Quote) That sounds very promising. I suggest sharing it on the forum (so anyone interested can see). I did try the crypto and it is OK for what it is - crypted saving. It does sync if you configure computer/phone apps to sync, but not practical f…

(Quote) pCloud computer client (Windows, Linux, and IOS) is very fast to sync, pretty "light weight" - compared to alternatives, including the Mega.nz which I use in parallel (tried and tested for years now - pCloud is yet to earn the tr…

(Quote) I just don't like the idea of a backup instance being terminated without a long warning (at least). That is a risk in addition to the usual malfunctions and hacks.
-
(Quote) What would be the cheapest & smallest reseller plan (and in which location would that be)?
-
(Quote) I've heard stories of user account removal for "copyright violation" so plan to use just the smallest plan for auto-sync convenience when swapping computers/work locations. Don't plan to use it for a real backup for that reason.

(Quote) No pigeons will be harmed.

(Quote) As far as I can tell, MXroute did the opposite in terms of marketing and lifetime plan selling. High (and ever increasing) prices, and probably rare compared to subscription plan sales.

(Quote) Probably overloaded. Worked this morning, now it doesn't.

Jarland took it over saying he'll try to keep it going, but now it seems he's given up. For those who haven't yet migrated, the time has come to slowly start doing it. Source - my uptime monitor (Hetrixtools - affiliate link) and LET discussion on…

(Quote) Don't worry: that was just a small diversion so our operatives could infiltrate...

(Quote) Simply put: We'll pick the one with the biggest pigeon!
-
(Quote) It does. Both in terms of sharing the load (pun definitely intended) and covering the time zones (for 24hour coverage when things get hectic). I would say two more would be optimal for now.

(Quote) CARL!?!

(Quote) Double my pay, you furry fury! My account number is: 666999
-
(Quote) It has been literally doubled!
-
(Quote) Yes - since a model listed under recommendations turns out to be a problematic (as discussed above). A fair note/warning.
-
(Quote) This one was brand new. Judging by how it sounds and behaves, it looks like a hardware failure (not electronics). I did keep it in a HDD external rack, and power it on for a few hours once per week. Maybe it is better to keep a HDD inside…

Well, out of two Seagate IronWolf Pro drives I bought a, the first one is still working OK, and the newer one failed after less than a year! Since I am in Serbia, and I bought it in Germany, I can also forget about any warranty, just to add insult t…
