  • @LordranHollow yeah, I had to do a google takeout to save a month to travel photos, that got accidentally removed from device, save those with multiple backups using my own personal backup protocol (as one should), then I was finally able to release the images from using up the free 15 GB allotment

  • @shertson thank you for the suggestion I have just installed it and like what I see.

    What a delightful bonus holiday present!

    I like how it had its own recycle bin. Seems much snappier than Google Photos too!

  • @f4f4f4f4f4f4f4f4 yup, I'm glad to have received a refurbished Pixel 5 after my first one started to having a swelling battery issue recently. Those models continue to enjoy effectively infinite storage.

    Also have a newer model which lost that benefit, the source of today's kvetching.

  • @googlepixel and sorry Lemmy account I know you're not actually Google but then, I didn't want to press backup either. I'm wildly mashing buttons today.

  • Google Pixel @lemmy.world

    Whoever decided to use dark patterns at to trick users into activating backup on photos while just trying to browse their Pixel just added to my chaos pile today.
