It starts out as $1.99 but everyone forgets that as life goes on they take more pictures and videos and have to keep upgrading cloud sevices to keep their memories intact.
Fuck when you put it like that, existing sounds bleak.
Google provides a feature to compress the photos, it's reeeally difficult to see a difference from the original. That saves a lot of space. It's a good practice to delete blurry/repetitive pictures. With that, 100 GBs can last a long time.
It's a bigger problem with videos where higher bitrate/resolution make a difference and they consume a lot of storage.
Most social media users are struggling to export their 500+GB of data. Too bad for their memories got owned by corporates.
