I barely remember what photo management used to be like before Google Photos, or maybe I’ve wanted to erase that bit from my memory. There were microSD cards, hours of transfer to-and-from computers and hard disks, and even more hours spent renaming photos, creating folders for different events, topics, people, trying to keep the metadata accurate, and bundling every remaining pic in a mish-mash of a “misc” folder.
Finding a particular photo in that setup took minutes, if not hours of digging, and that was back when my life was boring and I took a few hundred photos a year, max. Imagine what it’d be like with my new photography hobby and multiple thousands of yearly snaps now! No, just no.
