I am really thinking of switching to Microsoft for all my cloud needs, including email, photos and cloud storage and online office webapps.

I can't trust that company no more.

Dang.

But most of these I can understand why they cancelled them.

Google doesn't make sense. They canned some big projects with a large user base.

Just, be prepared for things to randomly not work a few times a day.

As a developer, interacting with their APIs can be quite painful.... as, things are frequently moving around, or temporarily unavailable.

The level of truth this is hurts me to my core.

Oh I know all about Foss. I was a Foss evangelist in university.

But some things you can't quite replace.

Curious what that would be... I use neither Google nor Microsoft for personal use and I have an msdn, lol.

After that Ms master key disaster, that's a bold strategy. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I've personally switched to Nextcloud and I'm quite happy with it.

You could try Proton, but I am not aware if they are offering any online office web apps.

[-] hellishharlot@programming.dev 1 points 1 year ago

You could use proton cloud storage to do 90% of the same thing you just would have to have local editors installed

[-] cyborganism@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

I don't think so, no.

It's only a matter of time before you the same regarding microsoft. Their services always get worse as time progresses.
