Seriously, 500 GB is "most users"? I never actually measured how much space my photos take (I put the off the phone onto a NAS), but I would guess it must easily fit under 50 GB, or I should reconsider how I store them. And I don't consider myself as somebody who barely takes photos. Granted, I have no idea how those people who have instagram actually think, but I don't imagine I might need that much of photos to be constantly accessible on my phone (I mean, the point of these apps is to have them actually accessible on demand on your device, right?) For a "professional" 2TB is probably not quite enough as well, but then, why would a "professional" store their photos as JPEGs on a Google Photos alternative? But otherwise, I might dump all my photos from Ente on a drive just in case, but to store in the cloud just actually nice photos, all dups removed. How would I ever exceed 50 GB this way?
So, what's the catch? Is 500 GB photos on Google Drive actually "most users"? Is there something with that service that would prevent me from staying within 50 GB? Like, maybe it's impossible to delete a photo later on? This is a serious question, 500 GB of photos for "most users" seems absolutely nuts to me.
