Is there any good decentralized cloud storage for personal backups as a self-hoster? (lemmy.tomateaux.com)

I’m thinking of using Storj because I’d like a trustless solution. Are there any other good alternatives in the decentralized or Web3 space?

Don't use storj. I used to recommend them, but they have instituted a $5 minimum charge to have an account. The tl;dr is that they are interested in B2B, not individuals.

I've moved over to Tigris.

Announcement: https://forum.storj.io/t/new-minimum-usage-fee-starting-july-1/30057/1

Here's a follow up to the drama: https://forum.storj.io/t/a-follow-up-on-the-new-minimum-usage-fee-and-a-request-for-feedback/30089

Hit up the /r/storj for more drama if you dare to look at Reddit again :puke:

Oh, that's disappointing. I was thinking of eventually using Storj as a second s3 endpoint for backups in addition to Backblaze.

Why did you choose Tigris over the cheaper B2?

[–] TrumpetX@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I'm doing the archive tier which is cheaper than B2
