Looking for a solution to replace gmail, docs, drive - Zoho? (lemmy.ml)

I recently dumped my Pixel for an iPhone. Feels dirty, but it's fine.

I've also been following the story of how Google Drive has lost a bunch of customer files and is just closing bug reports and support tickets without offering help, and I'm worried that Google is not an acceptable backup solution because they don't seem to give a shit about customers... and why would they? They own the world. Fuck mere humans.

Anyhoo, I'm trying to figure out where to move my backups (100GB), my docs (I'd love something where I can do sheets and docs in browsers and mobile apps), and probably my email too, because why not... but I suppose I could do email through proton or skiff or anyhing, but everyone offers it.

I'm currently looking at Zoho as the possible best option. It looks like I could do all three for like $6/mo which seems reasonable. Does anyone use it?

How are the docs and sheets? Is searching email robust? Mobile apps? Does Zoho hate customers as much as Google? Will they eventually?

I use Zoho at work and really hate it. At least from a technology point of view it's pretty ancient and hard to work with. If you want a replacement for everything except document editing I'd suggest Proton. They do email, storage, and even password management all in one. For document editing I actually usually use Microsoft Office online. Microsoft isn't great, but I still consider them better than Google.
