We are digital librarians. Among us are represented the various reasons to keep data -- legal requirements, competitive requirements, uncertainty of permanence of cloud services, distaste for transmitting your data externally (e.g. government or corporate espionage), cultural and familial archivists, internet collapse preppers, and people who do it themselves so they're sure it's done right. Everyone has their reasons for curating the data they have decided to keep (either forever or For A Damn Long Time (tm) ). Along the way we have sought out like-minded individuals to exchange strategies, war stories, and cautionary tales of failures.

I still use google photos and I maybe intend on getting a nas in the future to deal with my 400gb and growing of personal photos and videos but I want to start doing some backups for example one to an hdd and another to a cold storage cloud thingy, the one I heard most about is backblaze but I also heard about Idrive which seems way cheaper, is that one good? Also any ideas on how to handle the camera roll backups easily? it should be something like Android -> Main PC -> Cloud/HDD or for the backblaze / idrive thing can I go Cameral Roll/ Android -> Cloud? Ty!
