Tahoe-LAFS vs Cubbit cloud storages?
by Herve5 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5KN9C)
Hello,
I'm interested in safe cloud storage in the sense that for me, this should add redundancy, maintain encryption control and be as robust as possible to 'main server shutdown'.
Additionally, being a rather average user, I know I just won't be able to deploy too ambitious systems by myself :-(
All in all this resulted in mere inaction for years, just contemplating Tahoe-LAFS but being aware of its difficulty for me, and also I would't know how to start or join an existing 'share team'.
Now I just discovered Cubbit, a recent and very successful crowdfunding that at first sight looked a dream come true for me : I buy the device, all the rest is taken care (they even have a dedicated Debian application).
I'm definitely impressed by Cubbit, but also aware that apparently everything is closed source (and they have a single connection server to join the network).
I would like to know if people have different opinions on these two solutions, and also if I am missing other alternatives...
All your comments will be extremely welcome!
TIA,
Herve
P. S. some more info in MaketechEasier
