iCloud has an Advanced Data Protection feature, that when enabled, makes one’s personal devices the only place encryption keys are stored. Unless you live in the UK that is.
I trust no closed-source encryption mechanism. If I had to use any kind of cloud backup solution, I would first encrypt the files locally with a mechanism that I fully control.
I have been thinking of doing such thing to keep backups of my home Nextcloud server.
The funny thing is that after a problem with iCloud many people foun their “deleted” things to show up as if they weren’t ever deleted…i wonder how much it’s secure

Borgbackup solves this problem very well. It’s what I use to make encrypted remote backups of my Nextcloud.
