Alternative to Google Photos
Alternative to Google Photos
So I'm looking to disconnect myself from Google and their tracking (as much as possible) and I was thinking about installing GrapheneOS on my Pixel phone. I mostly use my phone for Lemmy, Signal, NewPipe and taking photos. The last one is my biggest bother at the moment. The Google Photos environment is so convenient - I take a photo, it uploads it to my Google Photos collection, and after a while, it deletes it from my phone to clear space, keeping only the cloud backup. Is there a functionality like this disconnected from Google that I would be able to implement on my GrapheneOS phone? I'm looking to invest in the Proton environment (mainly Mail and Drive) so I could use that for storage. Cheers

I'm sorry for my rec since I'm not sure if it fits your needs or spec, but I use SyncThing which seems to support everything?
I'm also not sure since I don't use it, but you could theoretically get a tasker or automator setup to force SyncThing on Wi-Fi to your backup server and another/same one to delete them monthly/based on storage space?
It's not an all in one, as I don't believe SyncThing does transfers but makes copies? Unsure, this seems like it may be an option for you!
Bonus: if you have any kind of music collection that you like digitally, it makes it very easy to have an automated library :)
It can definitely work! I use syncthing for my notes, music, photos, config files, and more, it's a lifesaver. I make sure all of my files make it to my desktop and keep it backed up.
