  • What a big pile of shit software, I swear I’m just gonna quit because of this ass smelling garbage.

    Today I discovered that C:/Users/MyUser was silently an alias of C:/Users/OneDriveBullshit/MyUser only in the explorer. So I just figured out why some documents were often disappearing for months, I’m just working on a multiverse were depending on the application the same path don’t lead to the same folder.

    Earlier this week I unzipped a file and couldn’t remove resulting files without administrator privileges.

    I’ve never lost so much time for any fucking software, let alone a paid one. And don’t even get me starting on the fucking ads they put everywhere even if you unchecked the 154 options in 42 different menus.












  • Although it depends of the backup format :

    • If you store compressed tarballs they won’t be of any benefits.
    • If you copy whole directory as is, the filesystem-level compression and ability to deduplicate data (eg. with duperemove) are likely to save A LOT of storage (I’d bet on a 3 times reduction).
