    Unlike other platforms, we store your files for as long as you need them, so it is crucial that we manage our storage sustainably

    I mean, its great that they offer that, but all my files dont need to be permemnant. I would love the ability to review and delete old files

      Yeah, makes no sense that they store some pdf I was dragging over to someone one time. Super inefficient. They should allocate an amount of storage per user that then rolls and deletes the oldest files when the cap gets exceeded to make room for the new files.
