Nowadays can we imagine that we load a large file on our thumb drive and go to our friend's home to give the file? No this is the era of cloud. We can easily store that file on our cloud storage and share it with our friend. Cloud storage solves a lot of problems.
But every innovation had their own problems, many cloud storage services sell our data or various private information to show ads. They also know our behavior and much more about us, they sell our data to maintain their profit. If we need good service and privacy then we need to away from free services because "If you are not paying for it, you're not the customer; you're the product being sold."
It is very difficult to find a trusted and good cloud drive for us. We are Linux users we also need a well optimized Linux application to use cloud storage. Here we have Internxt.
