I pay $10.00 a month for Google One so I can use their 2 TB of cloud storage in order to back up important files from my computer. I want to be able to regularly back stuff up, but Google makes it such a pain in the ass to do! Files take hours, if not DAYS to upload sometimes, and I've tried everything I can think of. I've used Firefox. I've used the Google Drive desktop app. I've used Chrome. I've used Edge. My internet is very fast, so I don't understand what the problem is. Is Google throttling the upload speeds for a service I'm paying for? How can I fix this? I like the security that Google offers so I wouldn't switch unless I found a similarly priced and similarly secure, well known and trusted service to switch to.
My internet speeds, according to Speedtest . net are...
Download: 131.88 MBPS
Upload: 169.78 MBPS
(Mind you, I ran this test with Steam, Telegram, and Discord open, as well as streaming a movie and having about 12 tabs open for various websites on Firefox all on the same device, so it's probably actually higher than that if I don't have anything running.)
