Yeah, hopefully that helps.

Unfortunately, I haven’t quite made the switch from Google Photos to something more private like Nextcloud. Google Photos is just so convenient. But I know my privacy posture suffers for it. :/

@bin_sh @switchingsocial @nextcloud I get it. Photos and Google Fi are my last to major hold outs (other than a few apps I need I can only get from Play store, but that's a whole other issue). I figure, out of all of that, Photos sounds like an easy win on a lazy Saturday

@chris @switchingsocial@mastodon.at @nextcloud

That makes sense. Are there any known privacy concerns with Google Fi? Or are you just de-Googling your life?

@bin_sh @switchingsocial @nextcloud A little of both. Google Fi puts all my calls, my phone number, texts, etc in Google's machine but... it's so damn convenient. On the other hand, I had been so deep in Google's ecosystem out of pure laziness that I just needed to start diversifying.

I understand. Photos is probably my last major service of Google that I consistently rely on. And due to convenience in sharing for family, I don’t know if I could make the switch. They always are butthurt from me recommending they download *another* secure application.

@bin_sh @switchingsocial @nextcloud Ha! I get that. It's a big part of what kept me on Google for so long. It's one thing to move my own data... It's another for my wife's. Calendars were hard with this.
