I have a Dropbox account, since eternity, but used it very rarely. Until I decided to remove my desktop computer from my life, and live with my Office PC and a laptop.
Suddenly I have ripped myself out of a lot of stationary storage space, and access to a lot of files in the process. Moreover, this change was also compounded by lifestyle changes, which reduced my computer time at evenings a lot.
Then, I realized that I used these files a lot, and I needed them where I am, regardless of the device I have with me. After that, I understood what Dropbox is about. I have all my files, everywhere I need, anytime I need.
Moreover, many of the bookstores and merchants deliver things I buy directly into my Dropbox. That's great. Even updates to these items arrive automatically.
I backup the whole thing weekly via rclone to a disk, and I'm happy.
