mixtape.moe doesn't have this problem

How is mediafire cancer?

most of these services have shitty captchas for every download and you have to wait 30sec or more before downloading with 50kbps speed and only 1 download per day is allowed.

because they wish to make financial gains from a service they're providing, when most people have come to expect the same service for free. So they'll inconvenience the user just enough to make a subscription tempting, increasing revenue. Over time, they'll be pressured by managers to continue making the interface terrible to use if they don't pay a sub, until they reach a point where it's absolute cancer to use in general, and even people willing to pay will avoid since they can't share DL links to free users without apologizing for shoving the cancer down their throats.

>file sites still do the jewish 50-150 kbs in 20 the year of lord 17
>but if you pay our shitting membership for like 60+ dollars you....
Nah

Dude it's fucking free.
If someone would give you 2 bucks for free you won't complain to him that it isn't a 100 dollar bill.

Mediafire doesn't do that though, but their ads have become increasingly annoying

>dropbox, google drive, etc
free, no ads, fast as hell

>random file hosting site
adladen virus cesspool with 2 captchas and 5kbps speed limit for free users limit 1 download per IP every 24 hours

>BUT IT FREE LOL DON'T COMPLAIN

>dropbox, google drive, etc
>free
Not for the uploader you fucking idiot.

>try to download porn three years ago
>rapidshit vs MU

>try to download today
>every fucker pushing their own individual service

Does mega.nz do anything shady?
... Or did kim dotcom went full good goy?

It doesn't have a web upload interface, that's how they require it.

IIRC it was taken over by some chinese people.

And every one of them caps at 50 kB/s

I used it recently myself for some small files, it works well and it's ad-free as far as I can tell.

they use some weird downloader that wont let you choose where to download files. it downloads them to your user account location first and asks where you want to move them.

That's because of the end to end encryption they are using.

i like this idea
this would be super simple to implement, too

you can practically upload anything (and I mean win10 ltsb isos) to gdrive if they're in passworded rars, not even showing the filenames.

i miss megaupload/megavideo

they even had some pretty hard to pirate movies on megavideo to stream

>inb4 >stream

What was traffic exchange?

>dropbox, gdrive
>free

ugh, nostalgic as fuck

mediafire is slowly going to shit
google drive "takes care" of your files
zippyshare and depositfiles got stale
dropbox, 4shared, skydrive, icloud, box, uploaded etc. are pure shit
the only left is mega but only when you use tricks. otherwise you have to deal with retarded limits and how the entire site was designed

>but only when you use tricks
What tricks are those?

MegaDownloader

It was shit

megatools

Why not just use mega?

Why is uploaded shit?
Couple friends and I are sharing an account, working quite well. And it has basicly no IP restriction, At our preferd board, everything is hosted there.

>account
there
the ones that let you bypass accounts and limits. this being one of them

some kind of account is useful if you want to remove the files later.

What's with those cunt sites and their 50-75kbps free limit bullshit? What is their fucking angle?

Probably something like hitleap

Uploaded is atrocious for free users. Unbearable.

You should use a service like real-debrid or alldebrid if you use download from these file hosters regularly. 3 months for 9 euros gives you the equivalent of a premium account at all the relevant sites.

>find rare porn I've been looking for
>link posted 2012
>mfw it's on depositfiles and still werks

yeah but do u trust those pajeets with ur payment info

>ads
>opens tabs/windows
>cheap-looking site
>tracking elements

Sharing is caring user

Depositfiles and 4shared are GOAT. They still keep files from 2009-2012

Storage and Bandwidth cost money.
Obnoxious ads generate money.

Both the ones I mentioned are French for some reason.

Lots of porn gets uploaded and horny men want a quick download so they'll pay for the faster speed

I used anonfiles before the went down, fucking hell.
