Windows 10: Why are the Feedback Hub files stored within the OneDrive cloud storage?

MS gives registered members--isn't everyone these days?--5 GB of cloud storage to be used as deemed fit by those users.


In my situation, they immediately took back almost 3 GB 75% of that storage for their own use as a "Feedback Hub" folder, leaving me with barely 2 GB of storage to use for syncing 'important personal data'.


Dishonesty does not breed confidence, and for that reason I will not use the MS OneDrive foranything important. Perhaps they will have enough to use for their Feedback Hub files and folders. I will use my own storage, thank you.

FeedBack Hub in OneDrive

I'm just curious as to why FeedBack Hub has been storing data on my PC under OneDrive? Is it necessary? It's grown to about half a gig. Is it safe to delete? Thanks in advance.

Cloud storage (aka Onedrive will suck so need to find something else)

So, I will have to move away from Onedrive, which is sad because it's frankly the best free cloud storage I know of. But as someone said: "Microsoft realized they accidentaly made a great service." and they'll change it so that starting soon this will happen (the things that affect me anyway):

• 100 GB and 200 GB paid plans are going away as an option for new users and will be replaced with a 50 GB plan for $1.99 per month in early 2016.
• Free OneDrive storage will decrease from 15 GB to 5 GB for all users, current and new. The 15 GB camera roll storage bonus will also be discontinued. These changes will start rolling out in early 2016.

This is so much crap. I use the free version and yeah $1.99/month I probably could afford, but it still SUCKS. Seriously, I usually don't get the MS hate, but this is a poop-poop move.

So I need something new.

Dropbox is out. Too tiny. Google Drive might be an alternative, but I'd rather not, for ... reasons I can't remember right now.

What I need:

• something like 15GB storage or so.
• Automatic photo uploading from my phone (Android)
• Preferably an actual app for Android (yes I know you can setup ES File Explorer and the like but that's usually pretty cumbersome)

The simplest solution I'm actually leaning towards is just to give up and get a 100GB plan now (current 100/200GB plans will not be affected, in the future they won't be avaliable to new customers), but that's the easy way out. *Frown
