I keep my data in the cloud, a local (versioned) backup, and for irreplaceable data like photos, i also burn identical M-disc media at least every year. One stored at home, another in a remote location.
While i will probably have worse problems to deal with in case the cloud disappears and my local data is gone as well, chances are that once those are solved, my family photos will not be a problem after those :)
- rglullis 5y agoI think for me the original comment was not just about the data, it was also about "what if the cloud disappears". Financially, it might make sense to pay MS a few bucks an year for a service. Philosophically, the idea is much harder to stomach. I am far from being a card-carrying member of /r/datahoarder, but I don't like the idea of supporting (much less depending on) streaming services, and I would pay for a subscription service if it was based on open source.
