OneDrive on Windows is fine now, but oh my gosh OneDrive for Mac is a mess. I didn't use it until my new M1 Mac (so maybe they are re-implementing everything without kernel extensions and it's causing issues), but it absolutely sucks. Every time it starts it can't find the folder, and I have to tell it where it is, then it will say "up-to-date" but nothing will actually have synced, then when it eventually catches up it spews duplicate files everywhere because every other box I have OneDrive on has updated since this computer actually synced. And Office doesn't understand that when I save in the ~/OneDrive folder, it goes into OneDrive, so it won't enable AutoSave or sharing unless you do a Save As and save it to the OneDrive SharePoint site it automatically adds.

It's like OneDrive on Windows 5-6 years ago. I know other people that used it, it worked fine at one point, but now it's terrible.
