Big OneNote user here, both for noting never ending workplace details and also personal life. I love it and have had it syncing very well across 2 PCs and 2 iOS devices for years. I use 3 Notebooks - Work, Home and Misc, each a separate file kept in Microsoft OneDrive. I've had zero issues with OneDrive in over a decade of daily use.
Work and Home notebooks are not huge - 250MB - 350MB, and I keep the Misc notebook small (135k) containing mostly my To-Do list. I keep it small in the hope it will sync faster than keeping my To-Do list in one of the larger notebooks but all notebooks seem to have some weird delay no matter which one I am editing. It will sync but often I have to go ahead and start some kind of edit (like hitting return) to force it to update. Since I edit from each of my 4 different devices I always want to make sure I'm editing the most recent content.
So while sync has been reliable for me, this delay continues to annoy me and I feel like there mist be some setting or other way I can get past it. Sometimes I wonder if there is a sync order that I can define (like telling it to sync my Misc notebook first) but I see nothing when searching.
