What do y’all guys use for cloud storage, like DropBox, Google Drive, and so on? Ideally something which works even when offline.

I’d like to de-google of course.

Syncthing for me. It is not cloud though - but better.

Well actually the cloud is just another computer, which in fact is what you would have to use if using SyncThing πŸ€“πŸ€“πŸ€“

You could set up your own cloud, yes, but you could also use only β€˜client’ devices, without ever having an off-site computer in the network.

Every cloud is just another computer, but not every other computer is cloud.

Depends on what you want to use it for. As others have said Nextcloud is super popular, I’m also a fan of https://syncthing.net/ to keep stuff synced across devices
