Based on what I’m seeing with google one and box’s iOS app, I’m going to agree. You can try to back up your pictures but it’s always a compromise.

As well as allowing 3rd parties in the find my network. I think we could see full device backups to other cloud services later. I guess the problem is they would want to provide a specific api for 3rd parties to implement rather than trying to drop a 256GB zip file on google drive with no differential backups.
