Is there any online service that I could use in order to have a private Debian repository? - eviltoast

Or maybe a way to use existing cloud services like Google Drive or OneDrive or Dropbox for this purpose?

I just have a bunch of .deb files and I think this could be really useful. Plus I will be offloading some of my storage 😁

    apt repositories are just http severs with some metadata generated.

    There are some services, like metioned jfrog and maybe nexus that will set it up for you with some additional tooling to aid in package releases.

    For a private use, a static file hosting + metadata is all you need.

    Here’s instructions from Debian docs. It seems fairly straightforward on a cursory look through.
