So I need some kind of cloud storage for work, however I want to move away from Google Drive (obviously). While I started my deGoogling journey by switching to Proton Unlimited, I am now looking to decentralize services from Proton, especially Proton Drive.

I have already tried the "put it on a hard drive and carry it around" route and unfortunately, it is just not working.

So the two Drive alternatives I have found are NextCloud and Filen. I would love to hear people's opinions on each (good and bad), and I am also open to any other suggestions.

Filen I want to like but they have had questionable encryption methods in the past, and they have not yet been independently audited.

Proton is pretty great. Solid free plan too at 5 GB.

Nextcloud is also great and has a lot of options and integrations with other FOSS software. Self hosted only though of course.
