Hey just wondering if anybody has any experience in a decentralized cloud storage solution. Pretty much just a personal replacement of Google, Apple, and Dropbox services. I’ve been doing some research and it seems like a cool technology that I have not heard about until I went looking for it. So just wanted to know if anyone had experience with it, the pricing, and which one they recommended. Thanks you.

What if you have endpoints on different networks and sync across the internet - doesn't it need those discovery servers to enable that?

Or can you host your own discovery servers (think I've read that somewhere).

Yeah this looks like it might answer your questions on that stuff.
