I works.

There is one disadvantage with Google Photos.
You cant have sub directories/sub albums.

So its is hard to have any structure of your pictures.

There are a lot of photo storage facilities.
I used phot bucket before. But they charge to much these days.

Good advice for a free storage service that allows to creata sub directories/libraries.

I use Postimage.org at the moment. Free (although there is a pay for it "Premium' version, easy to use and doesn't seem to have any baggage with it - that I can see anyway. Not sure about sub directories but you can have different galleries. Works for me in a low level way.

Everything costs money. Photo hosting and embedding also costs money, and not a trivial amount. If you want a good service, you have to pay for it. Every free service will either disappear along with your photos when it runs out of venture capital, or will force you into a paid subscription or a very painful archive download process after a while.

If you are not the paying customer, you are the product being sold.

Very true. I've used and abandoned quite a number of 'free' hosting services over the last 15 or so yrs - Flickr, Photobucket, a couple of bundled Apple services and about half a dozen other smaller players - even Dropbox - as they've been 'monetised' or hobbled. Now even Google is going the same way with a 15Gb cap on free storage from the middle of '21. 15Gb might sound like a lot and it probably is if all you're storing is a few hundred holiday pictures but about 30mins of 4k video would use it all.

Back when I was working as a photographer online storage was an absolute essential and I was 'happy' to pay but value for money and ease of access / use / reliability were looked at very carefully. Now that's all behind me storage isn't so urgent as there's no clients to keep happy but the capacity to keep images on line for stuff like posting here is still handy to have. I don't really want to pay for the privilege but there's a feeling that the walls are closing in. What I never did with work images and don't do now with personal stuff is put the only copy of an image online. Anything that's on Postimage is a copy. I got burnt with Photobox and learnt my lesson.
