iCloud doesn’t have Linux, Android, or Windows clients. It’s basically a non-starter for file sharing between users not on an Apple platform.
I don’t like the way Google Drive integrates into the OS file browsing on MacOS, and it doesn’t support Linux officially. Plus it does weird stuff with the Google Photos files, which count against your space but aren’t visible in the file system.
OneDrive doesn’t support Linux either.
I just wish Dropbox had a competitive pricing tier somewhere below their 2TB for $12/month. I’d 100% be using them at $5/month for like 250 GB.
I just mean does it keep offline copies of the most recently synced versions, when you’re not connected to the internet? And does it propagate local changes whenever you’re back online?
Dropbox does that seamlessly on Linux and Mac (I don’t have Windows). It’s not just transferring files to and from a place in the cloud, but a seamless sync of a local folder whenever you’re online, with access and use while you’re offline.

They used to! I actually got the 1TB plan the same year they phased it out. Good timing on my part there. Waste of £70 or whatever it was.
Technically, it does have a windows client. It’s just in various states of being broken.
The web interface also works just fine
Does it do offline sync?
I would need to know more about your use case

The windows client does, yes. But I’ve found that to be fragile on occasions.
Gotcha. I don’t know, I never tried. I’m curious now and will investigate.
