Google Photos storage policy changes 2021

Never really used it anyway. My photos are mostly still stored locally on multiple drives for backup and redundancy. I think some are stashed on my son's cloud drive (forget which one) but he has a massive limit due to being on some kind of student account. Once he graduates, I may have to bite the bullet and pay to upgrade either my Google Drive or my OneDrive if I want a cloud backup of them.
 
I use Flickr a lot; they allow for upload of high-res photos with their free account - although you are limited to 1000 files now, I believe...
 
I have a pixel, they sent an email saying it doesn't apply to google phone owners/uploads that come from the phone.

So, the marketting ploy is to get you to buy their devices.

Basically... but at the same time, you get to reap the benefits of being a loyal google customer. Something for something... :D

Just like with Stadia. You can "play anywhere," so long as you're playing it on a Pixel.
