macOS v11.1 Big Sur iCloud drive one way syncing issue, files from elsewhere register but files added (drag/drop via finder) stuck on upload
I'm experiencing one way syncing issues with iCloud drive. I have tried breath of troubleshooting steps, including restarting the device, creating another admin account, signing out (restarting) signing back in to iCloud, removing iCloud then turning it back on, safe mode, and many combinations thereof.
The current behavior is as such. Files edited on iOS / iPadOS sync to iCloud Drive. These files are shown in finder of macOS (v11.1 big sur). Creating a new file or editing the file on mac fails to upload.
If I open iCloud drive in Safari, I can do the following "neat" trick.
Creating a new empty folder on macOS, will appear in iCloud Drive on safari.
Creating a new empty folder on iCloud Drive on safari, will appear on macOS.
Creating a text.txt (utf-8) file in this new folder on macOS will have it get stuck at "uploading" for the 4kb file.
If I upload this file directly to iCloud drive, it will still register as uploading on macOS.
I don't know what else to do to get big sur to upload files.
