Notes
Rackspace Cloud Files is not available on Android. Rackspace now sells OpenStack Flex as its public cloud, and that platform does not offer the object storage CDN that Dropshare's Rackspace connections rely on to build public links.
Self-hosting is not in the tables because it is not a connection type of its own. A self-hosted Dropshare server is reached over SFTP, which every app supports.
Connections transfer between apps. Export a connection from Dropshare for Mac as a .dsconn file and open it on another device to fill the setup form in automatically. This works for connection types the receiving app supports; opening a file for an unsupported type tells you so by name.
