I'm planning to download EndeavourOS because I've heard it's highly customizable, yet easier than Arch Linux. However, I'm concerned about potentially losing my files during this process. Can anyone recommend a reliable cloud storage option to back up my files?

Mega is super popular and has a Linux client for Arch-based distros, making it very convenient. Just remember the limit is 50GB. Also, some users prefer just getting an external hard drive for more data security.
Honestly, it might be best to back up on a local drive or NAS instead of the cloud. I use a USB drive for mine – it's simple! But if you’re set on cloud storage, check out Mega. It offers around 50GB for free, which might be enough for many users.
Depending on your data size, free cloud storage is often limited to about 50GB. If you have around 200-300GB, you might need to look for paid options. Or, consider using Telegram; create a self-only channel and upload files there, but keep in mind the 2GB file size limit and the lack of recovery options.
You really should have multiple backups. There's a common rule of having 3 copies of your data on 2 types of media, with 1 stored off-site. I back mine up to my NAS, a USB drive, and use cloud storage as a third option.
