Why most uploaders do not use 1fichier?
 

I bought 1fichier access offer recently. And without premium or access offer 1fichier is great for free users. Moreover I saw they offer affiliation like 40% something like that. So uploaders can still earn money from 1fichier links and make cash and also give great experience to free users/premium users.

I am not sure if their affiliate program whether better than filejofucker filefucktory(!) or not. But it would be both beneficial for uploaders and downloaders. So please think about it.

Note: I dont suggest this for just I had a premium on 1fichier. I am caring about downloaders.

Another alternative is mega.nz i guess.(However they dont have aff program)

I use it because I can upload quite big files to 1fichier account (free) compared to other hosts. Same goes with downloads.

Now that's a good question.
A few months ago I purchased premium accounts for 1fichier, Depositfiles, UpStore, and Keep2Share. 1fichier is hands down the best one, and wish everyone on VEF was using it - would save us all precious time and money whether uploading or downloading. It's the most reliable host, and premium accounts are very reasonably priced. Depositfiles is similar - also reasonable and rank it 2nd. UpStore and Keep2share are reliable but terribly expensive - not worth the cost. Others such as Filejoker and Rapidgator are slow and not as reliable. (Currently having many issues with Rapidgator links not working... Filejoker and Filefactory take forever to download.) Despise all 3. Curious if others (including moderators) agree.

You've got it backwards

Cash host users are only interested in whose paying the most and 1fichier is paying next to nothing because they charge so little for premium

Their wjunction thread shows virtually complete disinterest from the cash host users

Free users might have used 1fichier when their file retention was 60 days without activity
but at 15 days their the worst around compared to the usual 30days , some go to 60 & 90 still

Seems true. How about download speeds as a free user? I get 1 mb/s from access offer on 1fichier.

Download speeds are great on 1fichier given its only back to 31% capacity used versus where it was at 60-70% before the credit card fiasco

Even better with mega.nz -1-2mb

BUT

That is what doesnt urge us free users to upgrade to premium so cash host uploaders stay away from hosts that give good download speeds to free users.

Its a very simple plan with cash hosts
- frustrate downloaders with slow speeds so more upgrade to premium

Then the host can pay their uploaders with more cash

Last time i looked the balance between those looking to give free users a good download speed and those wanting them to upgrade to premium was 15%/85% and thats being very generous.

Yes mega speeds are better than 1fichier for free users but mega.nz premium is much expensive compared to 1fichier.

Also. Big non-cash posters of movie files need a reliable host with plenty of space and 1fichier offers unlimited space for a ridiculous fee. I can't understand how they manage to stay in business.

1fichier is good and fast when it works, but often my downloads simply abort towards the end. Even if the download speed is good and it first says something like 8 minutes, it might be that it stops within the last 50-100MB. It happens randomly, no matter what time of the day.

I found Filefactory to be more reliable since its redesign and Mega.nz should be avoided if you don't want to support a selfish sociopath.

Because of cheapest french servers?
