Hello,

‎‎----My name is Justin, online I am referred to as "LITHIUM720". I like to write web software- a lot!

What is LobFile?

‎----LobFile is a purpose built file sharing and hosting website. You can make your own tool to upload and share files, or you can use a feature rich one like ShareX. This service was known as "Lithiio" for about 6 years, but was renamed to "LobFile" in December 2021.

Here's an overview of what LobFile can do for you:

Host your files, with a dedicated and unique link to each one!
Share file links anywhere! Discord, your website, Email, etc.
View and manage your file library on the website with some stats.

Why LobFile?

There are several reasons why I originally created this service:

LobFile isn't a profit-driven service, and never will be.
Alternatives push you to use their "custom software". I didn't want to install branded software to simply share files. You can upload files in any way you'd like on LobFile.
Popular hosts cover their sites and applications with ads and other content that isn't relevant to you in order to earn additional profit, like ad clicks, commercial referrals, and selling your data. We don’t do that here.
Most hosts compress your files (often significantly reducing the quality of your screenshots, photos, and videos). LobFile doesn't modify your original files whatsoever and aims to maintain the original integrity of them using sophisticated file digests such as SHA-256. This is especially excellent for content creators such as those who specialize in graphic design, photography, and many other disciplines.

I have a fundamental goal to maintain this integrity.

Why should I support you?

----Your files have to get stored and have to be ready for access and delivery every second of every day. This high availability comes at a price. Additionally, the anti-malware tooling that keeps LobFile and you safe, the high availability backup and restore tools, and the development time that keeps LobFile modern can be very time consuming. Pledging will directly help cover the associated costs of maintaining and developing the site. However, even if you decide not to support me on this project, it will remain online and free to use. This project is a lovely part of my life, I use it daily and I thoroughly enjoy working on it.

Ok, what do I receive if I pledge?

----Patrons get increased account limits for supporting the project. This happens automatically within 15 minutes after pledging if your Patreon Email is the same one you use on LobFile! You'll also automatically get access to restore files you deleted from your account in the future (when I finish building the functionality, 2023 sometime). Thanks for reading! :)

----Note: If your Patreon Email is different than the one you used on LobFile you can change your Email address on LobFile easily on the my-account page! Contact me if you run into any issues or have any questions.
