• The other half finally managed to fill up her 128GB iphone with photo's/video's of the daughter and she demands an immediate solution for extra storage. I’m hesitant about icloud because of the monthly cost and not having a backup solution myself. The integration into ios and osx is as seamless as can get though and will hard to match I guess.

    I have pootled around with nextcloud running on a pi4 but the experience was horrible for me so that’s definitely not an option.

    I have looked at synology, qnap and WDcloud (but seems grim). Any advice on a nas that has a really nice ios/osx integration? I have a spare macmini running for time machine and file storage and plex server, but I have not found anything usefull for offloading photo’s from ios devices.

  • What kboy said. Don't waste time looking at other options.

    I had this with my dad who shots most photos as a video first, followed by a minimum of 3 photos, but ideally 15.

    iCloud is the best solution. It was also cheaper than being sold $1k phones by the phoneshop guys for extra GBs.

    Me or my mum still also do interim hard backups as well.
