Hopefully you can read it as it uses a lot of Kotlin-specific stuff . There is a
pom.xml
too as there are a few dependencies.Thanks

Just a headsup: MiPony DL Manager seems to be infected according to my MWB so I wont be using/recommending it anymore!
Instead I started using https://portableapps.com/apps/internet/free-download-manager-portable (no 1fichier support though).
Couldn't resist at the yearly price, something to play with.
EDIT: Plowshare and specifically plowup works
When uploading a file using ftp (ftp.1fichier.com) client, does it always upload to root (/) only? I can't figure out a way to upload a file via ftp to a particular folder (already created using web-ui).
Yes, you have to move it manually afterwards.
After using this system for a day or so I decided it wasn't fit to use as a backup repository, it's meant for sharing dubious media to the masses rather than any reliable / usable storage.
It works for me and my ~ 20 sites I backup but I can see if it doesn't fit for your needs. Tbh for that price I am okay with some workarounds here and there as long as my files dont disappear
Just a quick headsup: The promotion for 10€/year is (still?!) going on if anyone is interested
Technically, they're not allowed to charge for using PayPal. It's against their legal terms.
https://www.paypal.com/ca/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full#4 (scroll down to section 4.6)
Basically, unless 1Fichier charges the same $10 fee for using a credit/debit card, they are violating the PayPal User Agreement. Many companies do this, and you can report them to PayPal. Most they'll do is force 1Fichier to refund the fee charged for using PayPal explicitly.
Yeah PP is complicated with them. Afaik they stated once that they are/have been banned from PayPal. Anyway I paid with BTC so I'm good. For anyone looking for PP just check their long list of resellers. They sell the yearly offer for ~14€. Still your best bet. I doubt reporting the reseller sites will help and 1Fichier is more or less PP blacklisted anyway so..
@Ympker Can't vouch for them, but they must be running a sketchy operation to be banned. I guess it's whether it fits your needs, because I wasn't really able to adapt it to my requirements.
To everyone his own
Im happy for what I get although Id pref google drive features for that price, too.
Sketchy for sure as they are known to be abused for hosting pirated movies etc but seems like they delete them if requested otherwhise they wouldnt be around so long.
That's why you encrypt the yeti videos
Yea probably why they are not targeted by gov yet.
@Ympker I encrypt my files on every platform I use. Google Drive, 1Fichier, etc.
My account with them is still paid for, so I guess I should make some use out of it.
True that For normal stuff I use winrar encryption/pw protection (128 bit). For important stuff I use Veracrypt.
Just a quick update:
It has been nearly a year now that I am with 1Fichier and although the need for storage has decreased for me the past few months I am still storing 2,74 TB with them and that's for just 10€/year. Even if this is not where one would store the most crucial files it is definitly more than I expected. I haven't been contacted to reduce my storage either (although I believe the soft limit is 30 TB ish anyway). For that price it's almost a steal.
I've yet to make use of the 1,2 TB CDN credits I have collected over time :P
And 1fichier made it to the 2017 Notorious Markets List published by the Office of the United States Trade Representative
More specifically, this is what that US Trade Representative report says about 1fichier.com:
Personally, I don't doubt that there are (also) illegal files shared on 1fichier, but it's unclear what conclusion to draw from this paragraph (note "... and allegedly makes available ..." and "According to the video game industry, ...", the latter claim without a reference). If the situation were so bad, given that 1fichier is in France (EU) and has existed since 2009, you'd think that some action could have been taken against it by now.
But I also don't doubt that the US government doesn't like 1fichier.
But I also don't doubt that the US government doesn't like 1fichier.
I doubt that the US government likes anyone.
Indeed, I don't think they like their own president also.
My CDN credits never decreasing on 1fichier. I have premium. Its a good bug i think.
Of course, you should have a backup strategy, but 1fichier has been around longer than buyvm. They're probably not going to disappear suddenly (despite what the US government may wish).
Okay can you explain why is my cdn credits showing the same value even i use for my files. It is not decreasing always increasing..
Contact their support. They usually answer same day.
Whatever the exact issue is, I doubt that this is a reliable sign that the US government has taken over 1fichier.
As @Ympker said, you could just ask them if this is a concern.
Update
They added an option to Speedtest your bandwidth on their network before you buy:
SSL Speedtest: Click
HTTP Speedtest: Click
Also interesting in case you wanna store encrypted backups in yet another location (not only 1Fichier please!):
Are they using CEPH?
Debian thx
Contact them in case you really wanna know :P
