My friend and I have a dropbox between us where we keep all our webms, wallpapers, political stuff, music, resources, etc. It essentially works like a private imageboard between us, if that makes sense?
Anyway, the costs of maintaining this constantly growing dropbox is getting higher every year. Is there a better, cheaper (free, even) method out there for file sharing? Need to be able to save: pictures, text documents, webms, gifs, audio files, video files.
Thanks in advance

use your own computer as a server lol
what else?

Syncthing?

Okay, is that pretty easy or?
I've never set up a server before.

Never heard of it, but i'll check it out!
1Tb for $10/month is expensive ??

On top of other living expenses, and the fact that it's not essential to my survival, yes. We're trying to save as much money as we can.
Just wondering if there's a cheaper alternative out there.

checked it out, looks pretty good to me. Thanks anon. I'll probably go with this.

VPS?

dropbox or a VPS are good if you want the data to be easily made available publicly
but if it's all private, syncthing is easy and cheap
it's p2p/serverless, no accounts, no size limits, no speed limits. data is transferred directly between peers, similar to torrents

you can also run syncthing on a vps, of course, and share some or all of the data publicly that way

>private imageboard
ate chan's software is mostly/based off of open source software. Just make one of those. Host it on some other port if you're afraid of botnets sweeping for vulnerabilities in whatever web server you use.
>but I can't port forward
Luckily there's this magical software called Tor that lets you access hidden services through restricted NATs.
set up a server
or use that dropbox clone that uses torrents
Use different services like drive, onedrive and Yandex
