@sutekh137 “Handing your keys over to Facebook”, that’s a good one.

See Epic is an online game but as long as they want to keep support for the game it will stay no matter how many times it goes down. So even if one server goes down, you don’t have to worry as it will restored later. But if you lose your progress, Rovio cannot always guarantee your backups but Facebook and those keys (aka the encryption algorithm certificates) can easily backup your recently damaged saves UNLESS you tamper with the game somehow and corrupt it. That Rovio cannot give us via their cloud save is what I’m saying.

I like cloud save but I like to keep my local saves myself so that it’s upto me to decide and I like that more. If you want to go cross-platform you don’t need cloud save; a local one will do just fine if you know where to put it. It’s just that cloud save is an easy process and thus even non-tech savvy people can use it. But since I know what I am doing, I never use cloud save as I don’t need to. Even for Epic, I always keep a local backup in case my profile dies.
