No Self Promotion No making posts with the express purpose of promoting your business/video game/porn career.

This covers implying you will set up a stream/public link/onlyfans in the future, having set up one in the past, or anything along the lines of "upvote this comment if you want me to do this."

It's a bit complex to set up, but Syncthing can do one-way syncing. So you can have it set to upload photos from your phone to your PC. Then you can delete those photos from your phone and they'll stay on the PC.
Then you just need a good backup strategy for your PC.
Do this, and also set up syncthing to one-way-sync to a family members computer, or second computer off-site. You always want 3 copies of data, 2 different formats, one of them off-site minimum.
Syncthing a built in photo backup job that does just this.
Though you can do it with any job, just turn on send only, disable sync delete.
