Why I stopped using cloud storage for photos

Posted by Amber Wu

📍 Rancho Cucamonga , CA


Built a local photo server with Immich on an old laptop. Encrypted backups go to Backblaze B2 for $0.006 per GB. My 140,000 photo library costs $1.20 per month to back up. I own the interface, the access controls, and the data. The setup took a weekend.
