Anyone have Dropbox replacement you really like? - I specifically don’t want to self-host - It needs to have seamless macOS integration - It needs to work for small teams - I need automated full backup to our Synology NAS Please only recommend anything you personally use and like.

I don’t know if it fits your needs perfectly. But I’ve been using Koofr to backup personal notes for a while and it seems to work well.

I have iCloud, Dropbox, Box, and GoogleDrive. I rely almost exclusively on iCloud.

I'm curious. Why not use what you already have? Your Synology can already do all that. Are you asking about Dropbox alternative strictly for the ability to share files? Store large files? Email link sharing? Sharing a folder with internal or external team members? All that can be done on the NAS.

Offsite backup in case the Synology dies. Most likely

Yes that but also when I share files I don’t want to do it over my dogshit Internet connection

Ah, now I see why you're looking for a cloud option. Although you'll still have the dogshit connection whichever cloud option you choose. Without having to self-host, Nextcloud may be the best option if privacy is high on your list. 1/

I can recommend mega cloud: - apps for win, mac, linux, - perfect .megaignore file sync filtering (all other services i tried are not even close to this), - also the only one that handles milions of files with no issues - can sync with synology - encrypted - and cheaper than dropbox
