It costs $53.63 a year. Cozy Cloud (Twake Workplace) is open source, so there is a third way: take its code and run it yourself.
What you could make

What you could not
- Files kept in step across devices without losing one.
- A password vault, the last thing anyone should make for themselves.
- Storing and serving files for other people.
- A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.
