RIP FX - You are a legend.
Here Dino is delivering his Pwnie Award, as well as the last public post FX made last year.

@CryogenicNighthawk Probably end up on one of the dedicated S3 providers, and Garage (because simple) for local sync eventually. I really can't be trusted to maintain long term storage myself, my local NAS is in shambles and in dire need of a full overhaul.
Long term archival will just be the cheapest option, probably AWS at $1/tb for glacier deep archive.

Finally built a RAW photo pipeline that I like. Can use it to backup in realtime from my camera (via phone), and for keeping track of my old photos from the last decade.

No more storing random albums all over the place. S3 clients support multipart uploads and resumes, PhotoSync has worked really well for me. And since it's all S3, I can easily sync to other S3 services for ultra cheap deep-archive storage.
