Immich is on a par with Google Photos, imo. It's self hosted though, so not for everyone.

Yeah I have an immich instance myself, and do plan on relying more on that as I max out my Google drive size.

The bigger issue I gave with that is remote backup still imposes a cost, and like you said you gotta know what you're doing to safely expose that to the Internet.

That is true. I only use mine locally, so it's not a problem. Although you can remote access via Tailscale for safety. It's quicker and easier than trying to set up remote proxies etc, about which I know nothing. Tailscale took 5 mins.
