GPM was great, but I found it was really only useful when I was working under constraints of Google's own making, e.g. when I was on:
1) A Chromebook
2) An Android phone/tablet that had limited storage and did not have an expandable memory.
So yeah, GPM was invaluable during the period from 2013-2017 or so when my main stack was a Chromebook Pixel/HTC One M7/Nexus 7. But now my main laptop runs Linux, and my Android phone/tablet both have SD slots, so it's much easier to me just to pop in a 128GB SD card into both and opt for local storage.
I guess if I ever switch to Pixel phones again, the loss of SD slot might be a problem, so again, it's sort of a Google fix to a problem Google caused in the first place...
