Looking for feedback on a new project (alien.top)

Hey, all! I'm working on a new project to upgrade our self-hosting capabilities. It's a cloud storage alternative to Nextcloud and Owncloud. They were too complex for my tastes so I wrote my own! It let's you choose your storage directory and upload/download to and from it over the internet. That's it!

Right now I'm thinking $9.99 for a LIFETIME purchase DRM FREE. Is that reasonable?

Alternatively I was wondering if maybe instead I should try to sell cloud storage itself? I'm really passionate about the cloud stuff I've been building and I'm looking for a way to finance getting deeper into it and further development.
