How do I sync my files between Windows and my Mac?
I've got a PC at work and a MacBook at home, and managing my documents has become a total mess. I want something simple that just works without any hassle. What do you guys use for that?

The simplest thing is iCloud Drive or Google Drive, you throw your docs in there and boom it syncs automatically across all your devices without you having to think about it.
Personally I've been using Google Drive for years because it works everywhere, you're not locked into the Apple or Microsoft ecosystem, and it's really seamless.
Dropbox is cool too if you want something a bit more robust, but honestly for most people Google Drive is more than enough and free up to 15 GB.
If you really want to avoid the hassle, Google Drive or iCloud are definitely your best bets, but I'd check first whether your job lets you use personal cloud storage at work - some companies are pretty strict about that for security reasons. If it's cool, a well-organized Google Drive folder will honestly save your life, like you create a clear folder structure (current projects / archives / drafts) and then everything syncs without you having to do anything. Otherwise, Dropbox works really well too and it's a solid middle ground if you want something a bit more robust, even if it's not completely free.
