  • Didn’t knew that.

    But, after getting downvoted, I searched for better solutions.

    It appears that a good option would be to encrypt my files (using 7-zip or veracrypt) and upload them to a more privacy focused cloud storage provider.

    However, paying for cloud when I have it for free does not make sense.

    But, I already started encrypting every file with 25 char password (randomized and saved using bitwarden). So, better than nothing, right?


  • I didn’t criticize anyone, I didn’t disrespect anyone, so it’s surprising getting this many downvotes and answers.

    Still, it’s your opinion, and I will still share mine.

    Local backups have their flaws, just like cloud backups.

    I have 1TB storage using my school account. I am constantly changing between devices, and I like having my files always accessible.

    Everything important, I keep in two local backups (external HDD and SSD).

    The only thing I dislike about onedrive, is the sync of desktop, documents and images folder. I have turned that off, but my docs folder still appears to be syncing with onedrive.

    Besides that, it’s the best thing for me. And like I said… “Peace of mind”. Just because you don’t like that, it does not mean it is a bad solution.
