I’ve been using whatbox for a long time, a few years, but just had the first real issue with the service.

Yesterday I went to Plex, and all my Linux ISOs were gone. I looked on Whatbox, and indeed, the folder was completely empty.

I contacted Whatbox with a support ticket, and they said I must have had hidden folders showing, and then dragged and dropped the ‘Linux ISOs’ folder into the hidden trash folder…but there are two problems with that. One, I didn’t have hidden folders on (didn’t know that was a thing I could do) and Two, If I dragged the folder into the trash, it would have been deleted ALONG WITH the contents, not just the contents inside the folder, which is what happened.

Is Whatbox gaslighting me after deleting my large folder full of Linux ISOs?
