  • Nothing beats Google Photos for me, personally.

    So I bought a used Google Pixel 1 (first gen) and use Syncthing to sync my camera roll from my phone to the Pixel 1.

    Google originally advertised the Pixel 1 as having unlimited cloud storage for life, so they have to stick to it. I don’t pay for Google storage but I’ve got at least 500gb stored in Google Photos (including all my RAW photos and my digitised VHS tapes).

    I’ll abuse this system until the Pixel 1 dies and I can’t get another one, then I’ll cry.




  • That’s a legit issue with these federated social media sites. The whole idea is to avoid one entity having too much power, but it splinters the discussions and the communities in a way that inhibits them.

    How do we know a better gaming discussion isn’t happening some place else?

    How does a company interact with fans and grow its brand without spamming every single gaming community on the fediverse?

    Not sure what the solutions are, but maybe that’s the point? We’re trying to usher in the older days of internet communities. Smaller, closer forums.
