Which self-hosted cloud storage stack is the easiest?

Nextcloud All-in-One via the official Docker image is the most maintained option. Seafile is leaner and faster for raw file sync. FileBrowser is the simplest single-user file manager. Choose based on whether you need calendar / contacts / collaborative editing in addition to files.

Can I run client-side end-to-end encryption?

Yes — Nextcloud's E2EE plugin and Cryptomator on top of any storage backend both work cleanly. For paranoid setups, Cryptomator + Nextcloud means the server only ever sees ciphertext.

How much storage do I need?

VPS plans top out at 480 GB (VPS-16) before NVMe gets expensive. For multi-TB cloud-storage instances, mount a Storage-1 / Storage-2 / Storage-3 over WireGuard from a small VPS running the Nextcloud frontend. Sync performance is essentially unchanged.

Will the host scan my files?

No. We do not crawl, mirror, or fingerprint customer storage. Abuse triage is reactive on substantiated external complaints and never predictive.

Can I share public links from my Nextcloud?

Yes — Nextcloud's public-link feature works without restriction. You remain responsible for what you publish via those links under our standard AUP.

Should I run my own DNS for the frontend?

DNS doesn't need to be on the same host. Most operators use a separate registrar (Njalla, 1984.is) and point an A / AAAA record at the VPS. Our infrastructure does not require a specific DNS configuration.

The case

Why offshore for file-sharing & cloud storage hosting

Cloud storage is the highest-volume privacy leak most users don't think about. Self-hosting on offshore infrastructure removes both the third-party scanning problem and the cross-border legal-process problem, giving genuine end-to-end control over files that probably shouldn't be on someone else's S3 bucket.

What we don't do to you

Built for people who actually care about privacy.

Four commitments that hold across every plan, every jurisdiction, and every payment method — including when you host file-sharing & cloud storage hosting. They're what makes offshore offshore.

We don't process DMCA takedowns

The DMCA is a US statute. None of our 8 operating jurisdictions are inside US territorial scope. Boilerplate, automated, or speculative takedown notices go to /dev/null. Substantive complaints under local law route through counsel, with a 5-business-day customer-response window.

No KYC. Ever.

No name, no phone, no government ID, no proof of address — at any point, regardless of order size. Sign up with a pseudonym and a password. Email is optional. You pay in crypto, straight to our wallets, so no bank or card statement carries your name either.

Zero logs. Nothing to hand over.

We don't keep server-side logs of customer activity — no access logs, no IP logs, no command-history logs. Tax / billing records follow Seychelles law (7 years, billing-only — never linked to traffic). No third-party trackers, no analytics linked to your account, no data brokerage on any tier. See our transparency report for how many subpoenas this has translated into 'nothing to produce'.

Crypto-native checkout, refunds included

Crypto goes straight to our wallets — no Coinbase Commerce, BitPay or other processor in the loop. 10 options at checkout: Monero, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Solana, TRX, and USDT and USDC on ERC-20 and TRC-20. 7-day money-back guarantee, refunded in the coin you paid with.
