I've been using it for a couple of years with Google Drive on Windows, on a near-daily basis, with approximately 300GB across multiple vaults - some very large files, some very small text files (think Obsidian).

I have not encountered any errors / issues / lost data. I do frequently get a message where it tells me it can't lock the vault because it's still "in use", but I just Force Lock and go on with my day.

I have encountered errors. But I still would recommend it. It‘s a good app. However, I moved back to Veracrypt.

The problem with veracrypt is that for every small edit I have to reupload the entire disk?

restic or duplicati might be a solution for you for that.

Files not being fully synced and ended up corrupt. This happened especially on iOS with documents actively worked on like for example numbers sheets.
