Lol, I swear, last night I was checking out some photos on my chomebook-turned-into-a-standard-laptop and wanted to transfer them to my main computer. There were a fair amount of them, and I didn't want to take up more of my limited space in proton drive, so I thought:

"Hey, might as well use Onedrive. I don't have any files there, so I got like 15gb to spare, and it's not like the photos contain anything I'd care about encrypting (I'll probably post some of my favorites here and on my blog) so no worries about privacy or the lack thereof."

The page wouldn't load, so I figured it was probably something on my end. Tried again this morning and it's still down, turns out they've been down for a bit now. Google nuked peoples drives accidentally not that long ago, and now MS is been down for probably nearly a day. I guess moral of the story, big tech isn't jank free. Syncthing, Proton, and my (no longer existing) Nextcloud installation all are yet to have any extended unavailability or data loss.
