Ok, so:
- VM over docker
Open issues
- "pre-config & make" or "pre-config and delete unnecessary stuff"
- where would it be appropriate to host such a big file?
- how often should it be updated and what would be the best way to do it?

No clue, but if you become desperate I can clear you 100-200 GB on my disk, however my connection isn't really that fast (40Mb outgoing).

Well
https://www.pcloud.com/

maybe we can compress it.
I will try to see if i can find their markting person and ask if they could donate
100 GB to Qt forum. -

That would be great. its super nice service. Much better than dropbox.Yeah, unfortunately he said they probably won't be interested. Especially as they can't monetize at all the simple file hosting. They may want to "enforce" usage of their app, but I told him it wouldn't be appropriate in this case. The problem it seems is twofold:
- there's not much gain of providing file hosting from the company's point of view
- file hosting is expensive for them, and they impose very heavy restriction on traffic, which means it's probably not a viable option for our case
I asked for advice on possible other solutions, but he said it's kind of unlikely to find a decent hosting service for free just for file storage - there's not much interest into it from the companies; paid file hosting seems to be best, but costs money.

That shouldn't stop you from trying to contact their marketing, they may have a different take on it, even if unlikely.

Not exactly what I was told, but it doesn't hurt to try. ;)

I asked Joel Bodenmann since he just installed 1000/1000 and bought 16 TB extra ;)
No harm asking.Update:
Joel Bodenmann will host the wm image gladly.
size really not issue.
