    its amazing how its generally easier to transfer something to a server a country over for it to then reach the other device. instead of it going directly over local network speeds.

    also how its much easier to backup to google than to you own computer thats right there.

      It’s really not if you have the right setup at home, instead of using somebody else’s servers. Like nobody has a NAS or their own servers?

      It’s much nicer not worrying about who can get to my files in the cloud, when they’re not in the cloud.
