Google Photos Ends Free Unlimited Storage 1.06.2021

Couldn’t last forever.

Still the largest free photo storage available.

“more than 4 trillion photos are stored in Google Photos, and every week 28 billion new photos and videos are uploaded”

Tip: For a free backup, get all photos uploaded before then because “photos and documents uploaded before June 1st will not count against that 15GB cap” of free photo’s. I have way over 10,000 photos there.

I have a NAS. All the storage I want, no Google spying, original resolution.

Personally, I’ve always been skeptical of cloud tech, whether it be apple or any other service. Nothing beats a good personal hard drive.

It’s a pain in the butt when you’re batch editing and images keep disappearing into the Cloud.

Clouds are made of water. When substances disappear into water it’s called dissolving.

:stuck_out_tongue: Ok bad joke.

I’m not going to rely on Clouds anyway. I had a bunch of old photos backed up to One Drive and the fuckers restricted my access. Haven’t been able to get them back. So fuck these tech companies. This cloud shit was never a good idea anyway

Physical storage is way cheaper, even when backed-up twice on different drives.
