Actually, as a linux user, it is obvious that I(or probable we) just 
trust in cipher. It is really hard to puts some important file on a cloud 
server without encryption. Backup? RAID can be used! For me, my most 
precious file is on Github, never worried of lost.

For file sharing, not only self-hosted server can be used, but widely 
used solution is also available. So, why use it? 

Nothing lost at all.
