I've used this for years, but to me the big selling point was integration with cloud storage providers as a means of backup. That, however, was always flaky and dependent on unmaintained third-party plugins. I think there was also a bug at some point that caused some data inconsistencies, so eventually I stopped.
Does anyone know if the situation has improved on that front in the past 5 years?
- matrss 1y agoDepends on the cloud storage provider, I think. The best chances are with those that support the more standard protocols like S3, webdav, sftp, etc.. A relatively new development is the special remote built into rclone, which should be better maintained than some other third-party special remotes and provides access to all rclone-supported remotes.
- andunie 1y agoOh, really? rclone is great, but as a standalone thing it's really annoying to use. I didn't realize until now that it was missing a git-annex integration to be great. Thank you! I'll start using it again.
