edit: Solved.
The title is a bit theatrical. My google account tells me my storage is full and urges me to buy more storage. The problem is, that on my new phone G Photos just started to put all my photos into the cloud.
How can I remove my photos from the cloud without losing them locally on my phone? I tried logging out of Photos, but then I cannot access my photos. I just requested an archive download via takeout.google.com so I hopefully have a backup, but I still need to get rid of all the photos in the cloud to free up the storage.
I recently started a home server and want to move to selfhosted services, but that will take it’s time, so for now, I am forced to continue google services.
Can you help me?
My research has been on surface level, but immich was one I was looking at. I’d like to try something without payment, but in the end, a safe place for all my kids photos would be worth it I guess.
You can install immich for free no payment required. The payment is just for people who want to support the very hard working immich devs.
