There are solutions like ente and immich but I think they both are pretty overkill for my use case. I almost never look through my old photos so I don't need an app and a web UI or whatever. The face detection thing does not entice me either. I don't need encryption either.

Is there a simpler solution for this? I am thinking of just writing a script that syncs the camera folder using adb or something like that. But before I create a jank monstrosity I thought it would be better to ask around.

If you have a network share available on your LAN, you might want to try the FolderSync App. It can make your phone sync its photos every time you're in your WiFi and plugged into the charger.

Alternatively, if you have NextCloud, the NextCloud App can do that for you.
