Wondering something, if you are using cryptomator and a VPS - so you don't own your data and use a higher level encryption - why not using the cloud storage services (i.e Dropbox, icloud etc.) ?
There are two reasons I don't use Dropbox, iCloud, etc.
First, I want to be able to use open source, audited clients that allow me to access my data in a transparent and flexible way on all of my devices. I don't want to use a closed source sync client that doesn't give me full control over how my data is synced.
Second, and more important, if you don't control your encryption keys, you don't control your data.
Storing my data on a VPS doesn't mean that I don't own it. I still have full control over it, and if the VPS disappears, I still have redundant copies.
I put my 1Password vault on Dropbox specifically because I can install both apps via iOS store on a new phone and bootstrap my setup with just 2 passwords.
iCloud is actually too hard to recover in case of hardware loss, I don't recommend it to anyone.
