I print it out on photo paper, violently scratch the eyes out of any people that might be in the picture, and then nail it to the wall of my basement with all the others.

Collect them for 20 years until I have 3TB of poorly sorted files of which I have posted less than 2000.
They get saved on a hard drive and backed up to an off-site server. I can then enjoy them from any device anywhere, and can show people if they're interested. I don't share them or post them publicly. People don't care and I don't need validation from others to take more photos.
They sit on a hard drive, on another hard drive, on a usb drive, and I might start burning DVDs too, just for the hell of it.
Since it would be a shame if they sit there without anyone ever seeing them, I post on Pixelfed every now and then.
It sits in my Lightroom catalogue and never goes anywhere. Sometimes I’ll post to Instagram or previously Reddit, but for the most part they just sit.
I’m thinking of getting a couple big sheet metal prints of 2-3 of my favorites to hang. I just moved into a new place with a lot of wall space and I’d like to put some up.
Everything goes on a hard drive, then backed up. The best ones get put into folders on my NextCloud where my family can see them.
If I want to make one public, such as a particularly good cat picture, I may post it on Pixelfed.
I make photo albums of a selection of all the photos I take and then show it to anyone who wants to see it. During holidays I also take video, and then combine those clips with photos into a home video. I have printed some photos to hang on the wall, so my home is filled with my own photos. I have some as desktop wallpaper. Lately, I make theme photo albums. I have one with all the different birds I have photographed and one with all my prettiest photos.
Desktop wallpapers, instagram, photo books sometimes.
If I like it enough (not often), I’ll share it on Glass. If I really like it (less often), I’ll print it out to hang on the wall. Most of the time they just get uploaded to iCloud so I can view them on my phone and iPad. I’ve printed a photobook once a long time ago; I’m working on another.
I have a shared Apple photos album with my dad and occasionally share with a small handful of friends on discord or on a Pixelfed with zero followers for the sake of having them somewhere that isn't my apple photos album.
I've had a very small handful printed as Shutterfly's metal photo tiles, and I thought they did a pretty good job (though the mounting was not sufficient for a textured wall paint).
