Wait... Someone explain things to me!

He was the worst! Zuckerberg levels of pseudo-humanity. Of course, he got promoted up and away.
I had a Pebble. It rocked, it died, nothing has ever been as good. sniff, sniff
Ugh. There's a book about how to be a better boss, and one of the things it says is that adding a mild curse to otherwise normal speech will convince people you are being sincere. My boss read it.
"Well, this damn job isn't going to build itself!"
"Aw shit! Lunch is over! Back to work!"
It was so awful.
This is actually a real problem... A lot of digital documents from the 90's and early 2000's are lost forever. Hard drives die over time, and nobody out there has come up with a good way to permanently archive all that stuff.
I am a crazy person, so I have RAID, Ceph, and JBOD in various and sundry forms. Still, drives die.
The two things that popped into my head are Immich and Nextcloud. I think Nextcloud is generally more useful, but Immich is more specifically targeted at Photos. As for how to synchronize it... Syncthing? Personally, I hate setting up Syncthing and so I don't really use it myself anymore, but once it's set up, it really does take care of itself. Poke the computer once a month to make sure it's still alive, and you're set.
You could probably host Nextcloud at one site and just have a client computer at the next site set to auto sync everything.
Been running NextCloud for a while, not for photos, but for just general Google Drive replacement.
I kid you not: My wife is making this in Lego. I showed her this post, and "Oh that makes me so happy!"
Commenting to register my interest.
I will confess that I was tempted to throw some snarky comment about Linux, but I got over the urge.
Love my Nextcloud. It's my go-to for half a dozen workflows. Screw OneDrive. Screw Office. Screw Spotify. Screw Airdrop. Screw Netflix. Screw Google Photos. Screw Google Calendar... NextCloud.
I have it on a bit better hardware than a Pi though.
Ditto, except mine just died one day. I put it away for bed, woke up, flipped it open, Nada. Brick. I felt it was a bit slower than I'd like, but got pretty good battery life.
Really tempted to try a Musebook, based on Risc-V, because apparently I'm a sucker for punishment.
I thought that dogs were boys and cats were girls. No idea why.
Its funny, my niece made it to like 8 thinking that aunts were adults and uncles were kids. She had one young uncle, and me. Called me "Auntie Phanto." I still haven't lived it down.
