About Gogoo.se

Tldr: Personal file storage with folders. Files and folders are shareable. There is a media player. *With limits

Free users get: 32 GiB ephemeral storage, 128 GiB download quota/month, and 5 GiB max file size. File size will increase later.

*Free user quotas and limits may change retroactively

The current state of Gogoo.se

We are currently in alpha. This means that we are still in the "testing-phase" and have no duplication or endurance when it comes to storage. Disk or server failure = lost data. Do not, for now, use this to store anthing for a longer duration. This will change later, and we will offer persistent storage as well.

This does not mean that failure is guaranteed, or that every ephemeral file will actually be deleted. This is simply a warning.

Limits

The file system has limits that aren't documented. 3 important limits: 16 folder max depth, 1000 folders max, and max 10 000 files for free users.

*Quotas will be adjusted retroactively to a higher limit for free users, these are conservative numbers during alpha

Being over system limits will not trigger automatic deletion of files or folders. A certain threshold beyond limits is allowed. Bypassing or intentionally finding ways around limits may get your files deleted and account suspended.

*Once subscriptions exist, such a mechanism will be in place when users unsubscribe

Ephemeral means temporary. How temporary? That depends. Eventually, the system will look for files that are considered inactive for 60 days, those will be deleted on a schedule, but only if the system wide capacity allocated to free users is low. Right now, this system is not active, nothing has been deleted, and we will only delete files that have been inactive for 60 days or more if we start running low on storage capacity by manually triggering this ephemeral file rendition.

What is Gogoo.se?

It's a file system, it's cloud storage, it's something else, or will be. The service is still under heavy development. The file system, the drive, is the core of the service, which later stages of development will rely heavily on.

Want to know more? check out our roadmap, which is still kind of vague... but it shows you what will be added to the file system.

The API is technically available, and largely public, but undocumented. We do not recommend programmatic usage as breaking changes will be constant. But if you have to or do, use it in a way where if it ever returns a 403 or 429, you stop using it for a while. A "panic clause", if you will. Rate limits, and different abuse-prevention measures are in place. The system will at first just returns errors on certain endpoints, then it will block you for a short time, and then for a longer while, and then forever. The abuse prevention system targets and is aware of authentication tokens, users, full request context, ipv4, ipv6, and your network ASNs. If you get blocked, we will not unblock you. You were given enough information of how this system works to avoid it.
