When Google will be shutting down Google Photos?

Of course, it is going to happen eventually.

However, I do have a dozen of photos there with no easy way to export hiqh quality photos in one go that worries me.

Exporting is easy. On desktop you can select photos and download a zip. You can also download them with Google Backup and Sync if you enable the option to show photos in Google Drive.
There is a limit thought when I tried to export from web some time ago. It was 500-2000 photos or something.

I probably have over 30000 photos there so it's a long process to download them all.

The desktop sync client is probably the way to go then.
Google takeout was great for this. I did it last month and backed up 60gb of photos.
