Simp Council Discussion File Host Suggestions

Hello there!

The situation regarding file hosts doesn't get better. Our list of Approved & Recommended File Hosts continues to shrink and temporary outtages or maintenances or bugs make it sometimes feel impossible to upload content. So we wanted to ask you, the users who are the most experienced with uploading (and the guys who reached Simp Council by spamming request threads :leokek:), which file hosts you would suggest. Of course there are some criteria that should be met:

No Monetization
If there is a possibility to earn money with downloads you can bet there will be spam, reposts and low quality trash on mass. So this is a big no-go:

No Compression/Loss Of Quality
We strive for the highest technical quality of the content and if a user already posted a compressed file it discourages others to post the source file, be it because of possible reposting or they think the quality is "good enough". Avoid file hosts which mess with the file:

No Temporary Links/Short Lifetime
Uploads on this forum are already targeted by DMCA takedown services, so links shouldn't die on their own. Something like bunkr, 30 days guaranteed and after that based activity, would be nice. This should be avoided:

DMCA Resistance (would be nice)
This is a hard one because there are only a handful of file hosts which ignore DMCA claims. At least don't suggest cowards like gofile or pixeldrain who nuke everything when someone only mentions DMCA.

Accessibility
Streaming videos is obviously more popular than downloading and creating accounts to upload is a turnoff for some people. The upload size is also an important factor, so if split zips due to max file sice could be avoided, that would be nice too.


We hope you have some ideas, and thank you for your input. :MLADY:
 
Who wants to test some hosts?

Edit:
Only two from the six are blacklisted :KEKWlaugh:
 
I'll give my thoughts on a few hosts that people might suggest and the ones we currently use.

Files.fm - Links clicked on from this forum take you to a blank page, they clearly don't want our traffic. They've also added a pay to unlock feature so may end up blacklisted anyway.
Mediafire - ok at the moment but no preview and when we were sexy egirls they would direct all traffic from the forum to an error page similar to what files.fm are doing now.
Dropbox - any link that gets too many views in a short amount of time gets temporarily suspended, dropbox links posted in semi-popular threads hit this limit fast.
We-transfer - deletes after 7 days or automatically if the link is clicked on from SMG (we-transfer hate SMG that much :KEKWlaugh:, I think this is why SMG have added that link redirect thing).
Ero-me - re-encoding shite with telegram ads and other spam all over the site.
Pixeldrain - they dont want us, their owner said as much in his discord and they added the auto-nuke porn report option.
Gofile - complies with DMCA fast but if a model doesn't care then they can last a while, they stream and download quickly most the time.
Cyberfile - taco hates the script it uses and hates fixing it, it ends up low on his priority.
Bunkr - max file size 2GB and tbh it cant host everything
cyberdrop - good as a backup when saint in maintenance :LUL

Saint and jpg have their issues occasionally but are for the most part adequately covering image and small video uploads.
 
Buzzheavier is the public version of fuckingfast.co but its been blacklisted
I never had issues downloading from buzzheavier, flashbang and trashbytes.

Being "blacklisted because of their fake download button scam" never happened in my experience... :PepeHmm:

I think most users didn't know what they were doing. Use an ad-block and click "Download" next to Direct. If that doesn't work, refresh the page and immediately click it
