How do you manage/handle all cloud storage?

Hi,
Today we have many cloud storages. I'm using iCloud but also OneDrive and Dropbox sometimes.
How do you handle all of them? Installing the client for all?

I don't install any sync agents (they chew through battery like nothing else - namely OneDrive) and use the web flavours.

For personal stuff I realy use iCloud, it is the work stuff that requires all the other bits... But web access works just fine

I use iCloud and an external hard drive for all my long term storage.

I have several TrueNAS NAS servers that sync to each other for redundancy and has the ability to sync all your data to any number of cloud based services. Use TM to backup each client to TrueNAS NAS and let TrueNAS sync to other TrueNAS NAS and to one or multiple cloud services. Eliminates the need to install separate cloud specific application on each individual client. It just works automagically!

I use Resilio Sync to sync all my data between my M1 mini, the 16" MBP Intel and a dedicated server which I use for a few things. The server is backed up to Wasabi and Backblaze so I have external backups.

I used to self host Nextcloud, which I like, but Resilio is tons faster, probably the fastest option available at syncing. Dropbox is IMO expensive if you need multiple accounts and iCloud is too slow and chokes with many small files. Resilio is the only sync software that I've found so far that doesn't care if you let it sync tons of small files like node_modules directories and similar. I very rarely need to share files and directories synced by Resilio, so when that happens I just use the free Jumpshare account (Resilio doesn't have a file browsing etc because it's decentralized and based on torrents, which is what is makes it so fast). For screenshots, screen capture I use Cleanshot.
