MEGAsync

brew install --cask megasync v6.4.0.2

Sync and back up files to MEGA cloud storage with folder-level control and end-to-end encryption.

Why you might care

MEGA offers 50GB free storage (vs 15GB for most competitors) with zero-knowledge encryption—your files are encrypted before leaving your device, so even MEGA can't read them. Ideal for privacy-conscious users who want automated syncing without trusting the provider with unencrypted data.
