I feel bad for saying this but I pay for onedrive because it was the best way to make a synchronised library of ebooks that I can use offline in my tablet.

Yes every other cloud storage solution was more expensive or outright didn't support it for some god forsaken reason. Some needed you to manually press a download button. Google Drive needs you to manually set every file to available offline and even then it won't work all the time.

You can use syncthing and not have to rely on cloud storage or pay for anything. I use it to keep my ebook library synchronized across devices and it does the job.

Thanks for the suggestion, I'll definitely take a look at it and hopefully I'll be able to drop onedrive if it all works out :)
