Google freaked me out when they gave 5 months notice to cough up $85us a month for a family account. I realized "somebody else's computer" is not a safe place to keep your own stuff.

Google rescinded, mere days before the deadline, but the lesson remains. Depending on single sources is bad design. So for example, an Anna's Archive might have that paper you want because it is distributed, private replications, impossible to 'erase'.

So not dark; there's scattered starlight ☺️

@teledyn Gooble has been "backing up" my photography for 10 years. It just told me "they are safe, but you cant access them."

Oh what? My photos. My fancy zoom, my crisp closeups of ducks. Now just blurry memories on FB.

Tears in the rain.

I backup my phone to nextcloud now, at some point will clear google photos but right now it's the screen saver in the kitchen - I am trying to build a replacement but that's another adventure. πŸ˜…
