I really need to choose a service to host all my photos on. I was a singular archive of every photo I've ever taken.
I'm seriously considering setting up a camlistore[1] server but it would probably mean writing my own Android/iOS apps to do auto-upload.
Also, I do rather like all of the features that Google Photos comes with...

- thethimble 11y agoWhy not Google Photos?...
- SixSigma 11y agoFlickr is what, 10-15 years old. Why not Flickr?
- frisco 11y agoI like Lightroom + Lightroom Mobile (which has automatic sync). When it syncs to my computer it gets into Dropbox, but a creative cloud subscription will have Adobe back things up for you too. Not free, but I put value on my photos and am getting pro-level editing tools at the same time.
- Raphael 11y agoGoogle Photos is awesome for lazy people like me. Everything auto-uploads. I can publish or not. I can edit or not. Convenient, free, and useful.
- planetjones 11y agoI use the Amazon Cloud drive for backups of originals - it's $59.99 a year for "unlimited" storage. Here I backup my RAW images and camera phone images. Once I've edited photos and want to publish (using Lightroom) I publish to flickr. This works nicely and I'm glad I have steered clear of any of Google's or Apple's offerings - frankly I don't trust them.
- apricot13 11y agoI use all three - flickr, google photos (the free version) and amazon. I also have harddrive backups as well - Im very indecisive!
- danieldk 11y agoI use Bittorrent Sync and just order stuff in directories. I don't like proprietary storage systems. Alternatively, Dropbox and OneDrive work pretty well as well. Both have pretty nice photo viewing interfaces (on the web and mobile).
