The Datpub server only stores the account information necessary to log in to Datpub, and the user's file data is not stored on any server, only on the device of the provider and the visitor. 2. Any file data and shared configuration information involving users are only stored on the file provider's device, not on the Datpub server. 3. The security verification of the shared directory is also done on the shared host, not on the Datpub server. 4. The Datpub account has nothing to do with the user's data security.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Linkboard at none against Datpub's 4. Linkboard also leads on iOS requirement (13 vs 15.0). Datpub's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 2 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
