How do you actually back up and save your photos and media off of your Android phone? (beehaw.org)

I've mostly just relied on Google Photos, and I really like its features. However, I have always been deathly afraid of losing access to my Google photos account and losing all of those, so I need a better way to actually back up my photos. Right now all I do is do a Google Takeout every so often, but that's inefficient as hell.

How do you do it? How do you backup or sync your photos with a PC/local server?

I really miss when Google let you sync your Photos collection to a PC with the Google drive client. There's third party sync tools now but Google's API limits them to the "High quality" versions instead of original

Right now I'm just using Onedrive, might setup Immich soon
