Advice Request Which cloud storage do you use?

[ispx]

Dropbox (free), Mega (free), PCloud (lifetime subscription) Google Drive (subscription), Sync (subscription), Amazon Drive (subscription), Degoo (lifetime subscription), Onedrive (subscription), Zoolz (lifetime subscription) and a recent signup with Hubic for a trial. Why so many? Coz I don't trust any except Amazon, MS and Google to stay afloat in the long term

you don't trust any of the ones you subscribe to, yet you have subscriptions with them say what?

I've been on dropbox subscription for many years and i like it.

i use dropbox free.

why? dropbox does not scan your uploads for suspicious files & you can delete your account at the drop of a hat.

Now I'm using Google Drive and MEGA. Google Drive is for documents, MEGA for bigger files.

A majority of those subscriptions were purchased at hugely discounted prices. So, at that cost, I don't really mind and I know 'giants' like Amazon, MS and Google will survive indefinitely.

Regarding the others, it is solely my long term view of their ability to stay afloat as a business. Colour me cynical. There have been a few cloud storage providers that closed down or changed their business focus to exclude individuals the most recent being Crashplan whose service I once subscribed to.

One drive + google drive + icloud
i'm using these three for different purposes. One more cloud storage i'm using for critical data.
