I recently dumped my Pixel for an iPhone. Feels dirty, but it’s fine.
I’ve also been following the story of how Google Drive has lost a bunch of customer files and is just closing bug reports and support tickets without offering help, and I’m worried that Google is not an acceptable backup solution because they don’t seem to give a shit about customers… and why would they? They own the world. Fuck mere humans.
Anyhoo, I’m trying to figure out where to move my backups (100GB), my docs (I’d love something where I can do sheets and docs in browsers and mobile apps), and probably my email too, because why not… but I suppose I could do email through proton or skiff or anyhing, but everyone offers it.
I’m currently looking at Zoho as the possible best option. It looks like I could do all three for like $6/mo which seems reasonable. Does anyone use it?
How are the docs and sheets? Is searching email robust? Mobile apps? Does Zoho hate customers as much as Google? Will they eventually?
I appreciate your advice here. I should have mentioned that I’m not really interested in maintaining a server myself.
I don’t know enough about security to trust myself, and I don’t want to troubleshoot things in my free time. I’d rather just pay someone to worry about all that, and I’m willing to take on the cost.
I totally get you, and you are correct. Self-hosting requires some time investment. If “playing” with these things is no equal to fun for you, you shouldn’t do it, and do what you want with your free time. I’m sorry I can’t suggest a service for this since I moved from big-tech straight to self-hosted. I hope you find the best fit for your needs.
