Photo storage -Flickr vs Google photos vs ?
-
Wow, turned into quite a thread.
I think I'll give Google Photos a shot, but still keep my own copies local as well in a central location. I agree with another person above that I would never trust anyone, other than myself, to keep a lifetime of family memories safe. I'll do that, then back that up....then make another backup just in case....

I have looked at Google Photos and Flickr. Neither have been really used to potential yet as I have to decide.
In the mean time I manually copy things from our phones and DSLR to my main desktop and that machine is backed up to CrashPlan.

If you're using Google Photos, instead of using your gmail.com account you use G Suite Business and get all the domain features plus the 1TB of storage for the same price. When you need more storage add via personal storage in Drive instead of via the domain which is 10xthe cost.

So, I'm upgrading to the latest version of Plex (free version as of now) and noticed that the new paid version ($5/month) now has a photo option, with mobile phone picture sync! https://www.plex.tv/features/photos/
Has anyone tried this yet? This would be my all in one media solution if it turns out to work well.
