I've identified most replacements apps to use on my pixel 10. The thing holding up my switch to graphene is photo storage and phone backups. I plan to use the app immich but where do you actually store your photos and back up your phone?

I have a friend who was telling me awhile ago how great Google Photos is and how he has like a decade of photos in there.

It's useful to remind those folks that a backup also needs to be accessible when you need it, and it isn't really if your account can, at any time, be banned because Google's AI flagged one of your kids' nude baby pics as CSAM. (Also... what business does Google have with your kids' nude pics in the first place?)
