Is there any cloud that is ad-supported? AFAIK, all of them (including google) is supported by charging directly for it and/or bundling it a different purchase

- kritiko 4y agoI'm referring here to Instagram / Facebook. How are you going to send your wedding or vacation or dog photos to your network? Mass email? The social platforms have a utility for most people at this point.

- fdewrewrewf 4y ago>vacation or dog photos >social platforms have a utility for most people Hard to tell if you're serious! I quit all social media and gave up my smartphone. I don't miss that brief "huh, that's nice" moment when being seeing an acquaintance's random photo they felt they had to share, and moments when visual imagery are shared now feel much more special.

- duderific 4y agoYou can create a group share in Apple Photos. Non-Apple folks can use a web link to view photos.
