It's not MS but Google Drive suffered data loss back in November. Any company can accidentally fuck something up. That's why I self host. When I eventually loose data, it will be my own damn fault!

Fair. I'm not knocking that choice if it's for you. But it isn't for most people, especially those who are not at all tech savvy.

I work in IT, and almost nobody who opted to use external hard drives for backup is ever up to date with their backups.
