In theory, if name metadata is "free", you can make a infinite ammount of 0 byte files with very large paths and tags.

- Gigachad 4y agoWhats the chance someone created some FUSE mount for storing data in 0 byte files.
- lazide 4y ago100% I imagine. GDrive does have API rate limiting which either way is going to make it slow/useless for REALLY large data storage.
- Gigachad 4y agoI've noticed over the years they have been cutting off all the unlimited stuff. Docs used to be unmeasured and unlimited, now they actually count the doc size to your storage, which is still effectively unlimited under non abuse use cases.
- andromeduck 4y agoThen just charge for metadata over a certian file count ot size?! Can be a token amount.
- Gigachad 4y agoDrive is a consumer product. Having to explain to a user why they were charged an extra 5 cent because of a feature they don't even understand is not viable. If you want no limits granular pricing. Use S3 or the Google version of it. They provide exactly the product you want, it just isn't Drive.
- andromeduck 4y agoJust count it towards the storage limit as metadata or some shit.
