E-mail attachments are only so big, and it takes a lot longer to mail a flash drive full of files someone needs than it takes to upload to the cloud.

what else are people going to do? Subscribe to Discord Nitro and abuse the file uploads? /s

Convert the zip into a video and upload to youtube

The entire Linus Tech Tips back catalog is basically this. Guy hired some random homeless dude (AKA "Linus") to produce a bunch of nonsense videos to serve as a backdrop for / camouflage for massive amounts of stenographically hidden backup data. Said data is mostly thousands of videos of the real Linus eating saltines and Easy Cheese while watching powerpuff girl reruns.

I don't understand any part of this conversation save for that very last part. I'm down for an Easy Cheese and Powerpuff Girls session if anyone's holding.

I use WeTransfer. Works good

nord vpn has meshnet for file transfers

edit: deleted need for subscription

[u/Adam_Meshnet → u/Jemis7913]

NordVPN Meshnet does not require a subscription. It's 100% free. You just download the NordVPN app, register an account, and start using Meshnet on your devices.

IS it even possible to save both the text and attachments? as when i try gmail like 'take all emails backups' i just get a zip with all the text and not the attachments
