Everyone believes that their Google Docs sizes are not counted into the total 15G free spaces allocated, but it is no longer true!!
I found out today and it is quite a surprise to me and I have to triple-validate it before posting it here.
Google never said anything about it and it seems that most people aren't unaware of such new situation. Take this article for example, which is only published this year at MAY 25, 2022, still believe otherwise:
These Things Do Not Count
Google does not count any word documents you create in Google Docs, any spreadsheets from Google Sheets, any presentation slideshows from Google Slides (thankfully), any forms or surveys from Google Forms, or any information for Google Sites.
Moreover, as of Saturday, November 05, 2022, this is what wikipedia says about Google Drive:
Google gives every user 15 GB (1 GB = 1 billion bytes) of free storage through Google One. Google Docs, Google Sheets and Google Slides files do not count towards the storage limit.[35]
YET, they do now!
Be aware!
