PC Master Race

This is the big reason. OneDrive used to be decent back when it simply offered my cloud storage in a folder locally, and it was more stable than Google Drive on Windows for me. But then, triggered by updates, they started hijacking the rest of my PC, syncing folders that I never wanted synced, like Documents and Pictures. When I uninstalled OneDrive, I couldn't access them at all! It had without my consent transferred all of my files into OneDrive and completely off of my computer. They were still visibly there, owned by OneDrive, but I couldn't access them. I had already wiped them from OneDrive before I realized this because at this point I was decided that I was done with OneDrive after this serious breach in trust, but luckily they were still in the OneDrive recycle bin. After a lot of swearing and googling, I found that I was far from the only person dealing with this, and after reading a few threads, I found the solution. I was able to reinstall OneDrive on the PC, restore access to my files, turn off the syncing they was turned on without my permission, and only then uninstall OneDrive. So yeah, I was happy with OneDrive for a few years as an alternative to Google Drive, but after that move? Fuck no, it's dead to me. I will not let OneDrive touch or get anywhere near my files.

This pissed me off enough to finally ditch Windows when it happened to me. It stole my freakin files without asking and put them on someone else’s server. Absolutely ridiculous, and just how a virus acts! How could I possibly trust the OS with any of my data after that?

Is that a configuration issue? I think what I did was went into the settings and tailored it. Shut off desktop, decided which folders and where. Then it's all good. I recommend it as a first option for multi unit use.

I think that has to do with the security they set up to try to ensure malware/viruses don't go upstream. If you are going to share permissions across users, across computers, and across multiple networks, you can't have Fred downloading an email to his documents which is automatically backing up to his onedrive which he shared with a sharepoint drive for everyone else to access and now it has permissions to come back down to their devices as well. I would say that's ignoring teams, but like it was pointed out elsewhere, SharePoint / OneDrive / Teams storage is essentially all the same.
