I’m a happy Dropbox customer because I use all of the 2TB space, they have a Linux client, and their syncing works far better than Google Drive and OneDrive. I can do things like modify git repositories, add and delete thousands of files, have files open for editing, rearrange large folders… - all within the Dropbox folder - and Dropbox manages to sync it without any issue, whereas when I tried the other two, there was a low threshold of “file change complexity” above which they choked.
I don’t use any of the add-on services like Paper.
I used to be disappointed that I couldn’t get an account larger than 2TB at a reasonable price, but then I adapted my workflow to split my data into hot/cold, with hot staying in Dropbox and cold going elsewhere. Because of this I could probably adapt to a smaller Dropbox account now.
