If you have a subscription to any of these cloud services or want to continue using them, setup rclone with crypt (cryptomator is a more popular option it seems but paid) to locally encrypt files before uploading and shift all data to be uploaded through them, of course though only do this if absolutely necessary or free since of course one should not be paying these companies in the first place.
Cryptomator is FOSS.
True but it's currently developed by a private company and the mobile apps are paywalled, there are workarounds since it is FOSS but a bit of a hassle, it does seem easier to use though so good option for those who have the money and are willing to pay or trust and can utilize the workarounds properly, rclone has more features and more seamless after setup but is a bit harder to initially setup and needs a 3rd party GUI for Desktop and Mobile since it's CLI only.
