minus-squareNath@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up14·9 months agoThe Pixel hasn’t left the house since 2018. All it has done since then is run SyncThing and upload the photos/videos taken by my current phones.

minus-squarethomcat@midwest.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·9 months agoAh heck yeah, I’m doing the same.

minus-squareNath@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up7·9 months agoIt’s a free app that syncs files to a central location. In my case, I sync any photo or video I take on my Pixel 7 to my Pixel 1. The Photos app on my Pixel 1 then uploads the new photos to Google Photos.

minus-squareLeax@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·9 months agoReally cool! Apart from the photos ending in Google photos, I thought you’d use a local backup or something :-)
