[syncbehind]

I used to have a limit of 3-4 photos a day (or one photo per event that day). If I took more than that, I would go through and delete the others. That's changed a bit since I started WFH.

The concept for me was that the point of the photo was to remind me of the event/ memory, and one photo did that for me. If I had 10-20-30 photos from a day or an event, I found that I was not mindful of each individual photo and just glanced at them (ignoring details and remembering memories). With a limited photo option, I was forced into mindfulness more. The added benefit, of course, was that it resulted in a conservative use of my phone's storage.

As for backup, I have syncthing running on my phone. It copies my photos into my laptop which funnel it into a time-machine storage and I have it up on google - photos. I would like to add one more syncthing instance (preferably out of my home) for redundancy, but that's about it for now. Maybe I'll start burning them on optical media or SD-Cards, once I have kids.
