How do I move files out of iCloud?
There should be plenty of storage on my Mac, so I have no reason to store files in iCloud.
How do I move files out of iCloud?
And how can I avoid having files stored in iCloud in future?

See the article Work with files and folders in iCloud Drive – Apple Support
Move items to your Mac and remove them from iCloud Drive
- On your Mac, drag items from iCloud drive to another folder in the Finder sidebar or on the desktop, such as Downloads, Movies, Music and Pictures.
- The items are copied to your Mac and removed from iCloud Drive on all your devices set up for iCloud. If you change your mind, you can drag items back to iCloud Drive.
