It's a terrible idea. Say your pc torrents 2 TB of media, I'm not gonna pay Windows for 2 TB of onedrive storage. What of those people in engineering and comp sci who have massive files of projects and don't need to sync to onedrive because they already use backups to github or otherwise?

Neither of those people are using windows as an appliance.

This is where everyone who loves Linux - and nearly everyone who works in IT/CompSci fails to understand the rest of the world. If you have to do anything from the command line - or if anything is easier from the command line - you've excluded roughly 90% of the population from calling it "easy". You may as well tell someone how to adjust the fuel mix in their carburetor or set up a bridgeport mill to make a quick replacement for the plastic buckle that broke on their backpack (and much stronger/durable to boot!). Not only does nobody today want to, they've probably only seen exist in a movie.

You just save them outside of the normal folders of documents, pictures, videos, music, and downloads that Onedrive syncs.

Or you adjust your Omedrive settings.

Yeah I know how to do this. I don't even use Windows but yeah, it's just annoying that Microsoft forces you to do all this to make everything usable.
