I’m looking for a SaaS to offload photos and files/backups. I don’t want to have to do a manual sync or process - I am too used to iCloud photo backup at this point, I would be paying for something I wouldn’t be using.

I’ve been using OneDrive for a while. I get MS 365 and get office + 1TB of drive space/user for 5 users for $10/month. Works great across devices and it’s pretty darn cheap for covering the entire fam.
Also recommend OneDrive, iOS app works great for automatically syncing photos, and has a decent document scanning/pdf feature I use a lot.
I’m using Immich at the moment. Its not perfect but it works, which is more than I can say about some of the other self-hosted options I’ve tried. It has both a Web fronted and ios and android apps. The auto backup works well for me on android. You can easily set up user accounts for family members and your photo backups are kept separately and you can share photos and albums between the users.
There are still some smaller issues, like handling live photos gracefully, the native apps are not perfect (swiping photos could be more fluid), and some weird limitations where you can’t seem to further share photos from shared albums.
However it is actively being updated and can run as a docker container meaning its easy to set up and maintain once you’re familiar with docker.
You will still need to set up some form of dynamic dns so you can find your home server from the Internet. DM me if you need any help.
Bet it was fun while it lasted…
Is something ending?
Yeah… not sure what they’re talking about.
If you email me all of your files, I promise to send them back to you when you ask.
IMPORTANT EDIT: please don’t email me your filesExcuse me, I thought I was to type out all of the file contents in each BTC payment to your wallet? Are those files retained??
Huh? I don’t speak BTC, we will NEVER access your wallets and steal all of your magic Internet Money.
