Some people may don’t know that it doesn’t matter which cloud provider you will choose, get the cheapest one but reliable. I got Wasabi S3 storage, 1TB/6$ Use rclone to mount into your filesystem, create encrypted mount point and send your files there. Now you have Wasabi(or any rclone supported cloud) and what they see are garbage (encrypted content). Also, since the mounted point is just like a directory, you can use FileRun, NextCloud, whatever. I use Syncthing to sync dirs from Phones and other PC.

Great tool. The only major cloud provider they don’t support is iCloud. Though, that shouldn’t come as a surprise, I guess. They’re also working on Proton Drive support.

Why not just self host? What happens when/if their service goes down without any warning? You lose everything?
Got my things all on a server with RAID for redundancy and backup weekly to an external (encrypted) device, monthly to another that doesn’t stay at home. Also means I don’t have to rely on the Internet to use all my services if the ISP goes down, the firewall explodes, etc. Self hosting is the way to go!
You have all locally, the remote is just an encrypted backup

Ah, I misunderstood you mounting the system in as your main, not a backup. Gotcha!
