Even though Google has a long history of killing their products I doubt they'd do it to Google Drive anytime soon. You could upload it there and make it publicly available. Proton Drive is newer and preferred by a lot of people for numerous reasons. It has a 5GB limit. You could probably use that.
I feel like the key is having at least one other place where it is in the event one service dies.
That said there are paid services out there that would likely keep your files indefinitely and are unlikely to shutdown anytime soon.
Google would likely be the subject of several lawsuits from other companies big enough to damages them if they just suddenly pulled the plug on Drive without an off ramp time. So even if one was worried, they’d have to have time to move the files somewhere else.
nothing is forever but google drive is free
Sounds like solid life advice tbh
It the service is free, you are the product
no shit
Amazing tagline. You should pitch this to their marketing team
locally encrypt your files then upload them on drive
I lost some of my best dick pics doing that.
Why someone would storage something forever WO getting something back?
Storage power isn't free..

Archive.org if you are looking for a public place.
If you are looking for private use, I would recommend taking a small/old PC and run Yunohost with Nextcloud.
Also all depend on the stuff you're talking about...
Although NC is great for the right usecase. If file storage is the usecase, NC is massive overkill.
Awesome Selfhosted has software for every usecase: https://github.com/awesome-selfhosted/awesome-selfhosted
Indeed, that's why I talked about Yunohost. Nextcloud install is just one click button on Yunohost.
i believe you. But its not only about installlation.
It depends what you are after.

Create a torrent, it will stay up as long as someone keeps seeding it.
Hrm - should I create niche amateur porn and embed my tax returns in them.
Free trials on most cloud storage providers should be free and remain forever* as long as you occasionally keep the account active.
Obviously, nothing is forever, providers might go bust, close their free tiers etc.
IPFS maybe
nah, nodes still need to pin the file for it to be permanent.
