I’ve mostly just relied on Google Photos, and I really like its features. However, I have always been deathly afraid of losing access to my Google photos account and losing all of those, so I need a better way to actually back up my photos. Right now all I do is do a Google Takeout every so often, but that’s inefficient as hell.
How do you do it? How do you backup or sync your photos with a PC/local server?
Look into getting a USB-C flash drive and transfer the photos to that. You can find a 128gb drive for $15.
I have two backups systems. One uses rclone the other is a python script using ADB.
USB flash drives are not reliable for long-term storage. Please make sure you have another backup if you keep your photos on one.
