We created free dropbox accounts for various rooms/purposes in our Church, and "share" the associated folders, so the secretary and I can save them in the shared folder, and those files show up in "Childrens' Church" or "Sound Board" or "Fellowship Hall" -- but only the files and folders pertinent to those locations.
When we do our PowerPoint for Sunday Morning, we can do that from home, and when the SoundGuys turn on the soundboard computer - they have the most updated copy.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

I just use it for backing up photos, my quicken file, and various files I share between work and my PCs at home. Every once in a while I will move the photos from dropbox to my NAS Photo share.

Occasionally I'll move really old stuff to the free 1T OneDrive that comes with Office356. (I think they're calling it Microsoft365 now, don't know why)The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

I use to use Firefox but they kept adding more and more bars with links to this or that on to it that it actually covered half the screen

OK, so THIS is weird....
A friend from Church donated a Dell laptop to the Church, and asked me to "wipe it clean".
I told him about my newfound "free install" of Win10, and told him I have NEVER - on the last 6 or 7 computers - had to supply a license number or authentication.
So, I booted this laptop (the one I'm on now) from the USB thumb drive with the Win10 install on it.
When asked, I selected Win10 PRO, figuring I'd be fine buying the license if it came to that.
Did the install, allowed it to do its updates, then a window popped up informing me my copy of license was not authorized, and allowing me to click on a "troubleshoot" button.
Clicked that, ran troubleshoot, it suggested I go to the Microsoft store and buy a license.
I clicked that link, and before I could choose a license to purchase, another window popped up and said "Windows successfully authenticated".
I rebooted, checked my PC System information - Windows status - Activated.The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.
