Why Alist Is Recommended as a Cloud Drive

I've been using Alist for several days now, and firstly I find it very appealing; it currently supports storing 20 cloud storage providers, covering all of the ones I use.

The cloud storage I use most is Baidu Cloud Drive, and Alist can also obtain Baidu Cloud Drive direct links; with IDM the download speed is very fast. I have many miscellaneous items stored in different cloud drives, and Alist can integrate them well. When searching, you don't need to log in one by one; you can simply open the drive you built to search. It can also preview online <PDFs/Images/Music/Movies/Downloadable Files>, etc. Very convenient.

Alist Drive Setup Issues

This setup is quite simple for those with a bit of foundation, but there are always beginners and newbies.

After I finished it, I also recommended it to some classmates; they said they really needed one because it is indeed very convenient. Later I realized not everyone can set it up; the videos found on Bilibili are mostly using Docker and more complicated. Then I recorded a one-click script setup video myself. It's more suitable for beginners; experts can skip it.
