Thank you to everybody that has replied. I have about five tiddlyspot files, and it's not clear to me if I can use GitHub for all of them.
I have a little experience with Dropbox, enough that I closed my account less than a week after I created it. So I don't want to use Dropbox. I have a domain or two, and I can create subdomains, so I'd like to do that. Again, my tiddlyspot files are ClassicTW, and I want to keep them password protected. A step-by-step how to port them is what I'm looking for. I'm sure I'm not the only person looking for this. It's are real payne in the arse not being able to update my Tiddlyspot files.
