1fichier goes cheap on us

[deadman]

Well, yet another really good free host just enshittified. Download speeds are now capped at about 1 Mbps and the waiting period greatly extended. It's about 30 minutes between downloads, from what I can tell, and those downloads can take a while. I don't think I can maintain the 1fichier links I've posted personally. I used to load a list of them into JDownloader and let it run every 25 days or so to keep them all permanently active. It's too slow for that now. They're going to start expiring.

We're going to find that any 1F links older than a month or two are more likely expired than still online. It's too bad. I have to wonder whether they really can't cover operating expenses or are just being greedy. Don't know enough about running one of these services to say for sure. I will note that storage has gotten dirt cheap though.
