    I don’t think it’s just the backups. Apple’s site says it’s things “such as” wallet, notes, photos, documents, bookmarks, reminders, voice memos, shortcuts, messages backup, and device backup. The “such as” seems to imply there’s more.

      So basically, all of iCloud E2E services xP

      NextCloud provides the same services, so is an option:)
