>The shoebox of pictures will still be there in the closet even if I stopped thinking about it many years before. And it will be easy for someone to know what it is. A bill for $10/month is the kind of thing executors get rid of.

Random shoe boxes of thousands of photos will get chucked by the executors - no one has time to go through them

No one cares

So ... if you're only worried about them maybe surviving your passing, don't worry: they're all going to the great dustbin in the sky (or in the front yard)

My spouse or child are the my most likely executors. Maybe they keep the box, maybe they don't. If they keep it, it can just go back in the closet.

Nothing critical has to happen next month and every month thereafter. There's no financial tradeoff to be considered. No need to doom scroll at a computer.

And if there is something that speaks to them, they can hang it on the wall. If you don't print, you don't really care that much about the pictures anyway. There's nothing wrong with that, making pictures is fun.
