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.
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.
Fuck when you put it like that, existing sounds bleak.
Most social media users are struggling to export their 500+GB of data. Too bad for their memories got owned by corporates.
