Welp. I completely lost one file I was working on. Awesome. 

@unforth-ninawaters
Yeah. It was my fault cause I had half a million tabs open but stil. It’s annoying.

I’ve used docs before but I kinda hate it. It’s useful for sharing with betas and stuff but I don’t like it. I dunno why. There’s no good reason for me to hate it, I just do. 

@samanddeaninpanties
😛 You say weird like it’s a bad thing, lol. I know I’m odd, I take great pride in that.

Drop box is great. I used to use that for sharing class notes in my giant history classes all the time. I don’t much anymore but maybe I should try it again. Usually I use the microsoft onedrive cloud. Microsoft has it’s issues, but it’s convenient. If I can’t take my laptop places I can take my tablet so I’ve definitely used it to get writing done in doctors offices from time to time. It wouldn’t hurt to save stuff in the drop box, too though. I’d probably lose fewer files. 

I’m starting to migrate over to Dropbox and LibreOffice for most of my fic writing needs.

I often have connection issues with Google Drive on desktop, and I’m already paying for a Dropbox so that all my photos are backed up.

Also switched to Linux Mint for main writing PC and Dropbox is available for the OS.

I don’t think I’ve tried LibreOffice. I know I downloaded another program in the past, (on a different computer) but it was difficult for me to use. (I don’t remeber what it was called.) I tend to get headaches if I stare at a white screen for too long, and the program I used didn’t allow me to change the color of the papre. I know it’s a super minor thing, but I like what I like. 

Definitely willing to try LibreOffice, though.
