I was using Boxcryptor with OneDrive for over 5 years and once they shut it down, I moved everything back to my local SSD. This had a number of advantages, the biggest one being that I could now use MacOS search to find files at lighting speed. I’ll never go back to cloud storage for files again due to latency. As a precaution, I now back up all of my data to an external HDD daily, then to a separate one on 1st of each month. Critical financial data is archived to a BluRay on the first day of each quarter.
