I thought this was killed recently[1]
(this = google photos appearing in google drive)
Does it still work for you?
If yes, how? :)

- jmathai 7y agoUploading to both services is still supported through the Backup and Sync app. But once uploaded they are independent copies and deleting from one doesn't delete from the other. I also expect that this support will be deprecated at some point in the future. Not keeping Drive and Photos in sync really killed it for me. I ended up switching from Google Drive to Dropbox but I still use Google Photos. I have photos added to my library in Dropbox automatically added to my Google Photos library and this has worked well so far.

- emilburzo 7y agoI see. I was hoping there was still some way to quickly backup from google photos directly to linux.
