I have to say, though, the increasingly desperate dark patterns Google is deploying to try to make me pay them for storage are getting up there these days.
The product itself is way better, but if I was going to pay to be subtly threatened with cyberpunk erasure I’m sure there are sexier options.
I’m fully going back to local storage/NAS now, even if it is significantly more expensive.
I would not, under any circumstances, want to rely on the toxic waste pool of a codebase that is OneDrive. I have to genuinely use it for work at times and it’s randomly decided to forget crucial documents exist enough times I just want it gone.
It really, genuinely is.

I would love it if I could find out about the API so OneDrive runs but points to my local NAS instead of MS.
That way I wouldn’t have to worry about an update turning OneDrive back on.
