Today was huge. I’ve separated myself enough from Google with Proton applications/services combined with other more privacy focused software and hardware to be able to completely delete my Google account.
It feels great to FINALLY be free of them. I’ve had an account there for decades.
if photo syncing to desktop is an option, try syncthing. I’ve got it set up to work only on my LAN, so when I get home it gets synced automagically. also nextcloud.
Syncthing is the way. It works amazingly well, I use it to sync project files between my phone and PC.
what OS do you use with syncthing? because (for me) on ubuntu, it won’t sync my video files between a computer and 2 android devices, and on fedora it won’t sync text files correctly (i keep getting sync conflicts)
