We also use it to cross-backup photo libraries with an avid photographer friend who lives across town.
It works very, very well.
This is an inevitable consequence from the push to make cloud companies responsible for the content they host. Analyzing all of it can only be automated; automation will deliver weird false positives.
Probably my most memorable lesson in unexpected failure modes for complex, automated software.
This wouldn't happen with SFTP, CVS and a $5 VPS.

What you've described is not at all an equivalent for Dropbox. There are many, many features that your stack doesn't support.

I ditched them for OneDrive which comes with an Office365 subscription. OneDrive is buggy, has file naming issues (on MacOS at least), is a memory hog, and has a host of other issues. So I tried iCloud+ which comes with AppleOne subscription, and it lacks some of the sharing/directory collab features I wanted.

I would like to see a future where humans achieve symbiosis with machines. Our brains acting as a limbic system to a larger sovereign machine entity. Still “you”, but more.
For such a thing to work, many ideas need to change. Data ownership, sovereignty, and the core philosophy in regards to machine-human augmentation needs to be reworked in groundbreaking ways.
As it stands, with megacorporations having no respect for individual access to their data on services at the whims of the corps, human machine symbiosis is about the scariest thing imaginable right now.
I assume they still have a local copy of it and can backup using an external drive. Because I am a Rick and Morty fan and I don't want any delays.
