The only cloud storage that doesn't track your activities and protects your privacy. Your data is encrypted and stored across several secure, EU-based datacenters. We don't scan your files or keep hidden copies after you delete them, either.

(and yes, "we don't scan" part is written in bold on their own frontpage )
It’s a question of a) how much do I want to spend and b) am I actually going to use it.
I already have:
1TB with Tresorit for the really important stuff that needs to be kept safe (250GB in use)
1TB with OneDrive as part of a family plan (110GB in use)
1TB with Internxt on a lifetime plan (unused)
150GB with Filen on a lifetime plan (15GB in use)
54GB with Box on a free plan (unused)
In that context, and given that Koofr can’t replace Tresorit or OneDrive, I’m not sure what I’d use it for, so spending £40/£80 on something i’ll possibly never use is not appealing. I may do the 100GB plan just because I like buying stuff, but I that’s such a relatively small amount of space I’ll probably never use it.

Only use it for android phone to sync images/media from WA chats. I cba to have WA media mixed with my camera photos on my primary photo storage (Amazon Photos) hence I sync those to Degoo. Since the phone (/app) just does its' syncing I didn't notice anything speed wise. I'm using the free plan (100GB, which is plenty). It just works, I guess.

Damn, you got even more than I do, mate.
I got:
Koofr 1TB lifetime (500GB in use)
pCloud 500GB lifetime (about 78GB in use)
Internxt 2TB lifetime (about 28GB in use)
Degoo 100GB (about 20GB in use)
and GDrive (free).
Sounds like you and I have a similar issue with buying things we don’t really need.
One thing that does appeal about Koofr as I think about this (when compared to the other services I have) is rClone compatibility. Being able to to have a large ‘portable’ chunk of storage that you can mount on whatever decide you choose is appealing on a number of fronts.
I know you can do it with OneDrive too, but I’m very careful what I actually use OneDrive for - I wouldn’t even keep it if it wasn’t for the fact that half my family use it as their only cloud storage and I’d rather they had something instead of nothing.

You had to buy 2 1TB lifetimes and stack them, but you missed the boat - they don't sell lifetime plans anymore.

Do you keep free 10GB after the upgrade to lifetime plan? Do free 10GB + 250GB stack or 10GB is gone?
I am asking this because there's requirement to open free account first in order to get lifetime plan and I also see that some local ISP clients get 5GB quota for free which add additional 5GB on the top of the already existing free 10GB for them, so they have 15GB.
Pricing page suggests you keep the 10GB free storage space on top https://koofr.eu/pricing/ as it says
Plus the additional 10 GB free space
With my lifetime deal that however wasn't the case (I only got a full 1TB):
Maybe it only applies to monthly paid plans @koofr ?

That’s great, but where’s the LES exclusive deal?
But we won’t tell anyone, so it’s fine.
I mean, the 20% is already really juicy and if BF perhaps gives 30% Stacksocial wide that's even better. Missing DN40 code ;( 40% off was great.

Fair enough. In that case, perhaps a 90 year deal is allowed (if lifetime isn't).
@Ympker said: 6TB seems quite decent But yeah, 20% was already nice, 30% would be even better :P
It's on the family plan, I will have to make a trick to share the folders with one account, but I will need to create 6 accounts anyway. My currency is weak, so I'm paying about $5/yr for each TB or $30/yr for the whole 6TB.

Synology (on Tailscale) 5 TB
I'd prefer cloud providers as I won't have to monitor a server (or anything else, for that matter) and lifetime cloud storage deals have no recurring fees. What's more, if I was to self-host I'd need more servers if I also wanted to mirror files to 3 different locations in case one server fks up. Considering all this, lifetime Koofr/pCloud is what I feel happy with. If it's sensitive files then I'll just use Cryptomator.

I think that sums up the current list, excluding the "free" tiers of Onedrive, Google Drive, pcloud and Sync which I suppose do not count due to low limits. Last two I might drop at the end of the year.

I remember you had a paid pCloud sub? Storage space for it no longer needed, or did you migrate it?
plcoud I decided not to renew- it was a 2 TB/ USD 15 a year promotional plan, renewed at 80 odd US Dollars/ year. Might pick up 500 GB offer around BF depending on discount. But will see..

That's an excellent point, they're definitely less hassle. I wonder how long some of these providers will last, but I guess migrating from one to another (especially if they support rclone) isn't any more work than maintaining servers.
I've been thinking about getting pCloud lifetime, but have read complaints from lifetime users saying their accounts were canceled for misuse when they claim there was none. That's made me hesitate, but their service works so well I'm tempted to take the plunge. I hadn't realized Koofr didn't allow stacking when I bought the 100 GB lifetime. I may create a new account to get the 250 GB deal. I missed the 20% off, but maybe there'll be another discount for BF.

Exactly, it gives me peace of mind. As long as you keep off-site backups of the important stuff you should be fine if one of your storage providers would shut down. Then again, I trust Koofr/pCloud enough to at least give (ample) notice before they shutdown services so you can retrieve data. If koofr supports rclone that would be even easier for many ppl to move.
That said, Koofr has been around since 2013 and pCloud also for more than 10 years iirc, so I don't feel too pessimistic rn.

Yeah, I read some of these complaints too. But then I always wonder what they did store. If it's DRM stuff just use Cryptomator and erase metadata or smth similar. Yeah, I'm happy with both Koofr and pCloud pCloud definitely seems to have the larger user base (judging by Android Store downloads and social followers), but Koofr isn't bad either.

How many lifetime cloud storage deals is too many?

Do they scan files or can I securely store my linux iso backups for personal use no sharing ofcourse
Want free vps ? https://microlxc.net
If the files aren't encrypted, assume they're being scanned.
It depends from your por.. erm documentary collection.
Doesn't everyone keep that sort of thing on 'app hosts' so they're available for easy and convenient 'review'?
The only cloud storage that doesn't track your activities and protects your privacy. Your data is encrypted and stored across several secure, EU-based datacenters. We don't scan your files or keep hidden copies after you delete them, either.

You had to buy 2 1TB lifetimes and stack them, but you missed the boat - they don't sell lifetime plans anymore.
Not available anymore, unfortunately.

This is an interesting offer from Koofr, I might buy one on BF.
Beside all the paid plans, there are other free choices around.
Terabox 1TB (using them for movies and remote uploader).
17GB in use.
Mega.nz (got their 100GB Free plan), Zuper speed as well.
35GB in use.
Storj.io 150GB (currently using it with RClone and Vue FM.
78GB in use.

Actually, everyone keeps the 10GB free, but it would be silly to write 1,01 TB, so the display rounds the text to 1TB
If you go to /app/admin/account you will see that you still have the 10GB listed as a free addon.
Don't worry, I wasn't gonna complain about the 10GB anyway. But yup, going to the path you specified, it's there
Thanks!

That’s great, but where’s the LES exclusive deal?
We are contractually obligated to match the lowest price for lifetime deals we offer to Stacksocial. So we cannot give out any price lower than what is on Stacksocial at this moment.
@koofr any les special lifetime offers?

oh
ok then, how you doing @koofr 
But we won’t tell anyone, so it’s fine.
I mean, the 20% is already really juicy and if BF perhaps gives 30% Stacksocial wide that's even better. Missing DN40 code ;( 40% off was great.

TBF I’m not buying anyway after careful consideration, but I just try for those to whom a few bucks more makes all the difference.
Fair enough. In that case, perhaps a 90 year deal is allowed (if lifetime isn't).

I hope we can get the 20% or a 30% by BF, I will sit and wait. Probably have to start using that 6TB I got from OneDrive.
6TB seems quite decent
But yeah, 20% was already nice, 30% would be even better :P

It's on the family plan, I will have to make a trick to share the folders with one account, but I will need to create 6 accounts anyway. My currency is weak, so I'm paying about $5/yr for each TB or $30/yr for the whole 6TB.
I've been deliberating whether to use cloud providers vs self-hosting. Here's what I have.
7$
Still sounds like a good deal

I'd prefer cloud providers as I won't have to monitor a server (or anything else, for that matter) and lifetime cloud storage deals have no recurring fees. What's more, if I was to self-host I'd need more servers if I also wanted to mirror files to 3 different locations in case one server fks up. Considering all this, lifetime Koofr/pCloud is what I feel happy with. If it's sensitive files then I'll just use Cryptomator.

Lets' see what I got...
Koofr 250 GB 260 GB LifeTime (Super awesome)
iDrive Mobile 5 TB Lifetime (Best phone backup tool for me)
Thunderdrive 4 TB Lifetime (Crapware)
Zoho 100 GB (Annual, included with Workspace subscription)
iCloud 100 GB (Annual)
I think that sums up the current list, excluding the "free" tiers of Onedrive, Google Drive, pcloud and Sync which I suppose do not count due to low limits. Last two I might drop at the end of the year.

I remember you had a paid pCloud sub? Storage space for it no longer needed, or did you migrate it?

plcoud I decided not to renew- it was a 2 TB/ USD 15 a year promotional plan, renewed at 80 odd US Dollars/ year. Might pick up 500 GB offer around BF depending on discount. But will see..

That's an excellent point, they're definitely less hassle. I wonder how long some of these providers will last, but I guess migrating from one to another (especially if they support rclone) isn't any more work than maintaining servers.
I've been thinking about getting pCloud lifetime, but have read complaints from lifetime users saying their accounts were canceled for misuse when they claim there was none. That's made me hesitate, but their service works so well I'm tempted to take the plunge. I hadn't realized Koofr didn't allow stacking when I bought the 100 GB lifetime. I may create a new account to get the 250 GB deal. I missed the 20% off, but maybe there'll be another discount for BF.
Exactly, it gives me peace of mind. As long as you keep off-site backups of the important stuff you should be fine if one of your storage providers would shut down. Then again, I trust Koofr/pCloud enough to at least give (ample) notice before they shutdown services so you can retrieve data. If koofr supports rclone that would be even easier for many ppl to move.
That said, Koofr has been around since 2013 and pCloud also for more than 10 years iirc, so I don't feel too pessimistic rn.
Yeah, I read some of these complaints too. But then I always wonder what they did store. If it's DRM stuff just use Cryptomator and erase metadata or smth similar. Yeah, I'm happy with both Koofr and pCloud
pCloud definitely seems to have the larger user base (judging by Android Store downloads and social followers), but Koofr isn't bad either.

@cyberpunk found a new Stacksocial coupon that works with Koofr, bringing 1TB lifetime down to 98$, which is great
Thanks for sharing!

Thank you. I could not resist and grabbed one Koofr plan.
Now I need to find a terminal solution for versatile and secured file encryption (without desktop).
