So if I move a folder out of iCloud before the sync finishes every pending file is lost? Did I understand the article correctly?



That seems to be pretty clearly what this article is saying.

And it's a goddamm disaster if that's the case.


I just tried that (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9888649) and it finished syncing the moved files. So no harm done and it even appeared in the iCloud.com Settings > Data & Security where I could recover it.


It's possible they fixed it or it's isolated to specific versions.


That was what happened to a friend of mine. And I reproduced it reliably, with data loss.
