I like MediaFire simply because it does not need to be tied directly to my gmail account, which uses my full real name. I think people can see that when they look at a google drive file (and also that happens when you view google drive files which I find kind of weird) if you were to share it, but I don't remember. If I am wrong then feel free to let me know.

EDIT: I was thinking of the wrong site anyway. I actually use dropbox.

Set up your own NAS or an emulated FTP from your router. Trusting any commercial "Cloud" service is a sucker's bet.

I do have a Media Fire account, but I keep everything on it in tarblobs or encrypted .7z. The snooping ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ scan all files for copyright scofflawery.

An external hard drive.

Time for a switcheroo?

I have several Google accounts and only one of them is my 'real' account.

Definitely not google drive, unless you want your files analyzed deeply by some algorithms.

I still don't know what site to use.

That's because nobody can tell you what to do, because nobody knows what purpose you have for it. That should be obvious. And if you have no purpose for it, you may just ignore them all together until you figure out what to do with it.
