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?

    Syncthing is awesome. I’m never losing data to a damaged or stolen device again, and it makes accessing data from a computer and sending data to the phone so much easier.

    But we have to keep in mind that syncthing doesn’t protect by default us from accidental deletion, so it’s not a 100% replacement for a backup.

      Quote Syncthing! I’ve also a Nextcloud instance shared with my girlfriend in order to share selected photos.
