I've been on Backblaze for a few years now, ever since Crashplan decided it didn't want individuals to use its service any more.
It's always been just janky. A bad app that constantly throws low disk warnings and opens a webpage if you click anywhere on it. Being told the password change dialogue in the app doesn't work and having to use the website etc etc.
Just all round not an experience that inspires confidence. In comparison, Crashplan just worked.
- Anamon 6mo agoBut Crashplan also had an absolute abomination of a bloated, sluggish, Java-based client.
- gadders 6mo agoIt was a bit, but I never found it as bad as Backblaze.
- ValentineC 6mo agoCrashPlan required, if I recall correctly, 1GB of RAM for every 1TB backed up. It got a bit unwieldy after a while, because I have multiple terabytes of photos and videos over many years.
- gadders 6mo agoThese clients can't be that hard to write, surely?
