Amazing, love it, definitely saving this one for my friends
Google Photos alternative is the literal example in the subreddit sidebar, and this gets asked so often.
Why dont you simply search this sub?
to be fair to the OP, if you're viewing reddit with the mobile app there is no sidebar unless you happen to click the 3 dots top-right then do some reading, so I can see how that can be missed.
it's a generous reading i know, but so be it
Thats not a good excuse imo. And even if ignoring the sidebar, nothing is stopping someone from simply searching "google photos" in the sub and find tons of discussions about this.
i know i know.. just trying to be forgiving about it
Im sorry, i don't seem to find the option. could you help me find it?
