I'm going to test this thing...
https://www.cryfs.org/tutorial/

Also there is a front end for it on all platforms
https://mhogomchungu.github.io/sirikali/

Unfortunately I can not try it for a while as having some mates pop over today.

The above solution works perfectly. cryFS is the better system to use, but at this time the windows version of it is unstable, though I think they are working on it...but Securefs is also really good, not as good, but it runs on windows as well as all the others.

Second best is securefs. It exposes files sizes but can hide directory structures when its used in its "full format".

securefs in its default format(lite format) is more or less like encfs,ecryptfs,gocryptfs in a sense that the only thing they hide is file contents and file names.

For a solution that works on all 3 platforms, i would order them as follows interms of hiding the most.
Anyway.. did some tests... seems to work very well with BodHi and Windows and should work on any cloud service. I use Mega and GoogleDrive. For now I am using a soft backup just in case, but I think this will replace my encryption that I have been using on windows.
