These are the new kids on the web for lifetime storage, and this deal is ~1/3 to 1/4 the price of the big guys.
They use Backblaze, but other than that I can't vouch for their reliability. (If only there was some way to, I don't know, see what they are like in the future…)
May be worth taking the risk on the cheapest plan.

Also available:
250GB US$39.99/~A$61 (62% off)

    I’m putting all my personal photos on a 1TB data plan from stacksocial marketplace /s

    "life-time of the company" plan

    Good for temp storage.

    • What is example of temp storage?

      • +4

        Here is an example.

        • RecursionError: maximum recursion depth exceeded

  • +1

    I put my faith in a platform that was the closest thing to being rock solid (Google) and they decided to pull the bait and switch. So I am no longer trusting any platform with mass data. As mentioned, this may be good for temporary storage.

    • Google had a lifetime storage plan?

      • was this when Google said cloud storage was free then?

        • The only switch I know about with google storage is that they won't store all your original res photos for free any more, they set a max resolution. Aside from that, I still get my 15GB free. It's not a huge amount, but it's enough for my email and videos / photos I haven't moved to proper storage yet.

      • When the early adopters of the cloud storage signed on for unlimited storage and then they told you to remove your files as the unlimited storage was no longer an option.

        • When did Google Drive offer an unlimited storage plan?

          • @eug: I think they're talking about the unlimited storage for photos that came with early Pixel phones.

            • @nostalgiaultra: Aren't those early Pixel phones are still getting the unlimited storage?
              And what does OP mean by "they told you to remove your files as the unlimited storage was no longer an option."?

          • @eug: I think is google workplace which provided unlimited storage previously

  • There's no way this is using Backblaze B2: https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-storage/pricing

    What's the chance this is some grey area software abusing Backblaze's personal storage plan? https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-backup/pricing

    Extremely skeptical of this tbh

  • Don't trust anything from stacksocial. All their lifetime agreements are just 5 years so after that, its up to the devs to 'honour' a lifetime deal.

    I would seriously doubt any lifetime plans.
    I bought a lifetime PureVPN plan via Stacksocial.
    After a few years, PureVPN stopped honoring it and Stacksocial gave me a lifetime plan of KeepSolid Unlimited VPN instead. Same but different.

    • +1

      Good to see Stacksocial backing their deals at least.
      I've had my KeepSolid unlimited for 9 years now.

      • I had purevpn for 5 years before they dropped it and have been with Keepsolid for 3 years now.

  • thanks for posting OP. saw this popup in my emails and feeds as well and was curious.

    yes lifetime means very little these days. Plex I think is the only one so far that has kept to their word. And I paid for a second account for the hell of it. but this is probably 10% of companies that advertise lifetime.

    but what i can tell still cheaper than google with a stong backend with backblaze , so if they stay in business for a year its paid off.

    definetly anyone with experience or better knowledge chime in

    If you have an M-Disc Blue-ray writer put the money towards media - 500GB for >100yrs -is anyone doing this?

    • This is the way

  • "lifetime" ?

    Lifetime of the company, lifetime of the retailer, or lifetime until they decide to not make it lifetime anymore? :)

    Big investment for such a big unknown.

  • How long is its life?
