Sounds like something you'd say before engaging in some good ol' fashioned extortion...

I checked out nextcloud and koofr when switching from Google drive and settled on koofr. In terms of the criteria you outlined above:

  • Decent desktop client + network drive which appears like a USB key in your file system, super usable
  • Very good android app
  • No document editing but you can open everything from the network drive using the editing software on your device and it syncs to the cloud
  • Nice price (45 euro for 200GB, which is all I need)
  • Downside: no integrated document suite for editing in the browser but the workaround with the network drive is very straightforward (one click to enable in the desktop client)

I don't need a massive amount of cloud storage, in the terabytes, say, so I've found koofr ideal for my purposes. Another bonus for me is it's a Slovene company so must be GDPR compliant.

I remember seeing this as well. I'm much more of a Brian Blessed than a Stephen Fry, unfortunately for my pain threshold...

This is a big part of why I love them so much. Hardly a week goes by that I don't think of the "boots theory of socio-economic unfairness" from Men at Arms!

Bill Phillips seems like a pretty cool guy, certainly fits the mad scientist archetype!

I actually haven't read Making Money but I will now :)

I learned this term from Terry Pratchett a few years ago as the disc in discworld rotates and the four cardinal directions are rimward, hubward, turnwise and widdershins. Instead of north south east west.

Edit: though I never knew it was a real word!

Yep would've switched to koofr ages ago but I've been happy with the Google drive experience until I wasn't...

Koofr is great, very user friendly!
