Let me add to your comment...

"PFAS filled Teflon shit out of here."

Which can be summarized by "we work too much"

You might be right. But I am glad that I left Reddit. I was spending way to much time there.

The only thing I miss is learning about a lot of stuff from specific subreddit's

Same thing here!

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.

😂 astonishing the amount of shit people think they're "missing out"

I would like to have seen more data on that table. The time it took to run each video compression.. the final bitrate of each stream. Besides that, very interesting results.
