The horror of logging in only to find everything since May has vanished

UPDATED Google Drive users are reporting files mysteriously disappearing from the service, with some netizens on the goliath’s support forums claiming six or more months of work have unceremoniously vanished.

The issue has been rumbling for a few days, with one user logging into Google Drive and finding things as they were in May 2023.

    I really like Resilio a lot, after lots of issues with other sync software, it’s made for an excellent personal cloud.

      I like Resilio, especially the selective sync feature. Unfortunately because it keeps the file index in ram, it kills my phone with my media share. It also uses a lot of resources on my Windows machine.

      Syncthing doesn’t have this performance hit, but… It doesn’t have selective sync.

      Sigh.

      So I use both for different purposes, with Resilio not running by default.
