I have a NAS as my primary photo backup solution and one day someone will make a photo frame that I can point at it and it will just cycle through photos, but until that day, it’s just a blackhole of memories. That said, that blackhole is important enough to me that I also back up online.
That said, given the new AI race, it’s less safe than ever before and I’m seeking somewhere I can stick my photos and videos really cheaply and securely. Somewhere with pedigree that seems like it would be around in ten years. Also, someone with a modern design team so the app doesn’t look like shit (preferably an open source Material You app targetting Android 14) and I can get notifications with daily memories.
Dunno why I find this hilarious, but I do. That said, I need to buy myself a new NAS before I think about one for a friend 🥺
i have a nas for my backup at my parents house. you don’t need friends for this 🤷
Easy then, buy a new one for you, give the old one to your friend :)
I wasnt really joking either, the upfront costs might be higher, but longer term will be cheaper than a cloud service. And hopefully more secure.
