That’s literally the only reason I picked Google over anyone else. Switching to iCloud I guess. I have mentioned this before - it’s not about privacy. One mistake is what it takes to either them blocking you or you locking yourself out of your account. The only safeguard is to keep a downloaded copy that’s accessible. I do that with Photos+Drive sync. Similarly for email, contacts ...etc. Google is stripping away that.
- fauigerzigerk 7y agoThe problem with iCloud Photos is that you can't share albums with non-Apple users.
- virusduck 7y agoYou can, actually! You have to use the custom URL that is generated.
- fauigerzigerk 7y agoThat makes the album visible to everyone who has the URL, not just to specific users. On top of that, it's impossible to change the URL.
- jmathai 7y agoMy main issue with iCloud Photos is that there's no way to disable auto-upload. The idea of every photo I being uploaded in an instant to iCloud is such a deal breaker for me. As far as I can tell there's no option which can replace the Google Drive + Google Photos functionality they are deprecating here.
