I want to know how I can avoid having to buy storage space on iCloud? And while we are at this why is it when an item is removed from iCloud that it is removed from the computer?
iMac, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3), I would appreciate suggestions

Regarding the second question, iCloud is primarily a method to sync data between devices. It was not designed to be used as a cloud-only storage location.
