SSL Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Back on topic: I'm torn between copy and mega. The former has linux client (and os x one, too), the latter gives more space for free and isn't run by USA-based it sec company... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redirishlord Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 @ CJ2311: proud to be a 'murican. @ SSL: the NSA will be viewing your uploads regardless. Oh, you said back ON topic, my bad. I just installed Copy and it was quick & easy, with rootsrat's referral link you get 20gb (thanks btw). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

z929669 Posted May 16, 2014 Share Posted May 16, 2014 Just FYI: Mega is pretty nice, but it lacks one hugely important feature: One cannot link to images dynamically. For example, I cannot use the image tool in this post to paste a link to my image so that you all can see it here in the forum. I can only point you to the image so that you can view it on their site. Copy is better for sharing images (as is DB) ... however, Copy does not retain the file name in the public URL, which is a problem too. Generally, sites want to restrict this kind of content to jpg or gif so that it cannot be abused or used as a predatory tool for breaking a site. DropBox DOES have a bandwidth limit. They cut my service once due to my exceeding that limit ... probably because of my hosting some highly viewed screenshots on these forums a while back. This is also a problem. In my XP, DB is easiest to use (and so is Google Drive, but it suffers same as Copy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
