I'm confused, we'll have a separate Photos folder somewhere? That won't sync? I thought just photos on Drive wouldn't sync.

- micimize 7y agoRight now photos sync with google drive. "Once these changes go into effect, this folder will stop receiving updates. It won’t go away; it will just stop syncing with Photos." Really hope they give users a proper heads up and opt out button like "hey your photos are about to be duplicated do you want to keep the old copies?"
- anchpop 7y agoI don't understand this. Lets say I have a 15gb drive limit and 10gb of photos. After this change, will I have 10GB of photos in Google Photos and 10GB of photos in Google Drive, putting me at 20GB total? Or do the duplicated photos not count towards storage limits? edit: "If you use Backup & Sync to upload photos and videos to Drive and Photos, it will upload a copy to each service, but it will not take up duplicate storage." I assume this applies here too
- SippinLean 7y agoBut is there a new service to sync your photos (outside of Drive)?
