5GB is a joke in 2023. It should be 5GB per device. Preferably 10.

I think you are all forgetting that Apple is a struggling business that was on the brink of bankruptcy 26 years ago. Show some understanding, please!

Oh well… good news for us in the UK once again. /s

I really wish Apple would introduce a tier between 200GB and 2TB.

I have too much for the 200GB and have loads of unused space on my 2TB plan.

Oh it gets you something. It gets you nonstop notifications on your Mac that your iCloud storage is full from iMessage chatlogs and constantly pressures you to subscribe.
You are right about that lol soon the nonstop notifications will show up in Apple Vision Pro. ?
