Microsoft OneDrive is getting really unreliable, especially given it's an app that's supposed to help keep your files safe. First they broke their own file sharing across accounts, and now the local files aren't syncing even though their sync client says that the files are synced... WTH

I was surprised by the investment in Arc, but I was also excited because browsers are challenging. For me, Arc's general performance was the showstopper.
