Lots of people here say Proton, but I'd also consider selfhosting my email on either a home server or the cloud, whichever meets my criteria for redundancy to stay online vs cost

The photos I take on my cellphone are instantly catalogued, scanned for metadata, and synchronized with my gallery. The app then gives me fun photo displays and reminders of my past daily.

I do nothing but take photos and pay a small fee.

I'm particulay looking for.the functionality of Google Photos, not just a cloud storage solution but a photo catalogue integrated with my camera among other things. Does Proton offer this?

I wonder if this correlates with my recent desires to de-Google my life. I'm steadily growing less happy about daily using their services and them holding all my info.

I'm open to suggestions for cloud photo storage/management on par with Google Photos if anyone has some. I'm looking into FOSS but would rather pay for the service in the long run. These days I'm too busy to learn to be an effective server admin and keep up with the technology.

They totally feel it to be true, and they've been told their feelings are more valuable and true than actual facts.

If we could stop hating people for things that don't really have anything to do with our daily lives, that'd be great.

A Palestinian cuurently in Gaza, or a Jew who lost family on Oct 7 may have a different justification for their thoughts and concerns than the person sitting comfortably in Starbucks and glaring at the brown person or the person with the slightly larger nose.

Fucking lunatics.

People making content should immediately pivot to become the approvers, not the generators.

Keep in mind that their America IS being destroyed. They're happy in an American where they are free to judge and hate people. The rest of us aren't, it's being taken back, and they're putting up a fight for it.

They don't get that they'll be just fine when they realize they can stop hating people who have nothing to do with their lives.

Happened yesterday, indoctrined right wing self proclaimed conspiracy theorist son killed his "traitor" father and showed the severed head on YouTube for a few hours.

Now you see why the right wing tries to neuter schools and education.

Hey if they want to set that precedent, so be it.

This is a moment in history like Ford releasing the Model T. The horseshoe industry took a massive hit, as did anything related to horse transportation. The winners saw it happening and pivoted themselves.

Right now, one person with AI that makes prompts replaces an art department. Gig work will dry up as many people learn to ask ChatGPT to write their excel macros, instead of hiring it out. Audio engineers can be replaced with one person doing QA in some finished products.
