Greetings fam, i'm unable to download items from the google drive (Team drives). It keeps on popping up " The download quota for this file has been exceeded" let alone tryna download after 3 days of gap & different VPN servers thinking it would refresh the limit but nope still the same issue.

Would be glad if there's a solution to this. Thanks in advance.

encrypt your data and encode it as a file. Upload it to youtube. Infinite storage!

jk dont do this. or do. it might be funny

Wouldn't YouTube try to "optimize" it destroying your data in the process?

it would likely be possible to have enough redundant data that it would be usable still

Not sure if it works for this specific gDrive error but usually when I wanna download something but Drive won't let me I add a shortcut to it in a folder in my own gDrive account alongside a dummy text file, then I right click on the folder and download the whole thing as a ZIP.

I had no idea they even had an upper limit to downloads.

I'd love to know both mow much it took to get there and how to bypass it should it happen.

750gb upload, 5tb download per day. However this seems to be another limit, maybe file based max sharing or something.

I vaguely remember something like 750gb transfer per day or something (for the drive, not the user).

[–] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 year ago

For the drive makes sense

A lot of traffic would probably look suspicious

You could try to "make a copy" using gdrive, that'll add a new downloadable version to your drive
