My son was just born, and while a few photos will go on the likes of Facebook and Instagram, overall my partner and I are wanting to keep our shared photos private from the EULA abuses that we all know and hate.

Does anyone here have any good suggestions? I would create my own front end, but I can't swing hosting or a static IP to do it from my local box. Are there any companies out there who aren't total shit bags who claim immediate irrevocable license to all of my photos to do with whatever the fuck they please?

I mean, you can just use some simple hard drives if you just want something that works. You can get a terabyte for like 40 bucks nowadays.

Have pictures printed and mail them. Use a family text thread.

If you aren’t gonna host your own digital files and you don’t want someone else to get their hands on em those are the options.

Google Photos works well except it is exactly what you don't want.
