Ask HN: Help with my project ( should I continue) ?

It's feasible, just not sure it's profitable.
Your biggest issue is going to be EU/UK (un)encryption laws now that Switzerland is breaking.
A standalone home/cloud VM server would probably be easier than a full cloud based google like system that can easily be throttled at it's one source by any EU agency/government.

Thanks!
Indeed, the law might be an issue, but hopefully we will not get to that in the end.

My question is, do you think it would be feasible? Is it there enough space to market and sell it?
I did it because I wanted an encrypted system, hosted in EU and, as I have children and lot of photos, I want them to be safe and private.
I want to mention that even if that there is no way to sell it as subscription, I am still happy to have built it, I can use it for me and my family in cloud with a home server backup. (as every developer, I have a ton of project like this :) )
I just want to give me an idea (as I know how big this community is) as if there is any value in it.
Thanks!
