I guess cloud computing is my old man yelling at clouds line.

Not necessarily. Cloud storage is great for off-site backups and collaborative working on projects, but Onedrive, 365 and the rest of the Microsoft stuff is the problem. It's clunky, overloaded and generally a pain in the ass to manage. It is successful mostly because everyone already works with Microsoft stuff, especially their office suite, and Microsoft makes it really annoying (and in some places difficult) to go around it.

At my last job I had to implement and manage a lot of 365 and Sharepoint and I find my private Nextcloud more comfortable (and there are hosters who offer Nextcloud as a partially managed service so that in a company environment you'd mostly just need to administer users and small, easy stuff). If for usability alone I'd put Google's cloud services and collaborative office environment before Microsoft's (they're still both shitty megacorps and I recommend staying away from both, though).
