With all due respect but this is the first time I've heard of Seafile, probably because Seafile isn't for consumers [1], SpiderOak is primarily a backup solution that learned to do sync, with its client implementations being weird, ugly and featureless and while I never tried Mega, I really don't think anybody sane can trust Kim Dotcom's Mega with any important files.

As anecdote I have zero acquaintances using any of these. Mainstream are Dropbox, Google Drive, Box.com, Microsoft OneDrive, Apple iCloud and Amazon Drive. That's already Top 6 and combined they probably cover more than 98% of marketshare.

Your experience is not the same as everyone else's. Do a Google search for "cloud storage" and you'll see all the ones I mentioned coming up in lists in the first page of results. If that's not "in the top 10", I'd love to know your definition. Oh, right, you already gave it: "Well I've never heard of it!"
