Unpopular opinion: OneDrive automatic integration is amazing. Get a new PC, login, boom. PC at your parents' house? Boom.
I tried open source file syncing and it was jank. Everyone making their own cloud is inefficient anyway.
I just wish windows phone was still a thing and it could all be on the Microsoft account. It remains better value than any other offering.
That said, if it's not your thing and you don't want any of it, I agree there should be a big red "I've got this" button if you want to go full manual transmission. Well, windows style, maybe circa Windows 7. Linux is only for those for whom playing with settings is why they computer.
Also "personalisation" can eat a dick. And stop fucking asking me for feedback. You get 1 star everytime just for asking. I'm done. /rant
This is not unpopular, just the wrong opinion. "Think different."
Nobody has any good explanation for why though.
Even if it wasn't spyware, there is 0 reason to use it over other options.
What do you recommend?
I want something that I can set up and forget about, that costs a few bucks a month or less, and integrates between all my devices. Security is a given, so let's assume spyware or not, the data is safe unless I fuck up.
