Here we go again... It is in your documents folder, on your own computer, that is in your house. It is also monitored by the cloud, just like your phone; no complaints there. Why are people so stupid that they don't realize this?

"Imma kick yer ass!'
I figured out like 2 days ago that you can right click the OneDrive warning in the file explorer and choose to dismiss it!
Easy. It's a long name but you can rename onedrive accordingly.
If they don't have Hank saying this in the new season, I will be extremely disappointed
Am I the only one that thinks one drive is cool? Apart from the fact that Microsoft tries to confuse the user and also harvests their data.
I think its cool to have core user folders that are automatically backed up to a cloud account. Ive been trying to find an extremely cheap way to set it up myself on Linux. It would be so cool to open a new distro, login to my cloud storage abd then have all my settings pull in and photos, documents etc. I want my music folder to replicate across all my devices including mobile. I know there are ways to do it synthingbor git, but I'd like a easy way like onedrive haha.

It's just as cool as any other cloud storage :) I think I prefer Dropbox, but OneDrive is fine as well. Can't recall last time I had serious issues with either of them.
If we are talking about folder backup feature, I personally don't like it and think cloud storage should target only 1 special folder. Then again it is very useful for regular users - Sally from accounting team no longer will lose her 100 important files that she keeps on her desktop after computer gets ransomware.
And it is an optional feature so I don't really understand what is everyone complaining about.
A HERETIC!!! GET THE TORCHES AND PITCHFORKS!!!!!
I use NextCloud to access and sync my files. I set up my own server, which isn't exactly as simple, but there's managed Nextcloud services by hetzner for ~ five Euro/month for 1TB of storage that you can access with NextCloud apps.
Yeah im not paying 5 euros a month. I dont want to pay more than $3 nzd a month. I just want to store like 30gb of files.
OneDrive is a decent solution for non-techies who need a backup system. I’ve installed it for octogenarians who certainly would never backup anything on their own. It does versioning on the files, so it can protect against ransomware and provide fallback to earlier versions.
Whenever I am remotely helping one of the people I have it setup for, I glance at the icon to see if it is working. Occasionally, I see it complaining about a single file not syncing for some reason, but that generally will resolve itself by the next time I check.
It has a vault that requires additional authentication for your most sensitive files.
I like it—I’m sure its not perfect, but it isn’t terrible.
