Yeah, I'm not paying for that.

ok

I wouldn't give them my data for free.
>in b4 they already have it

It will probably be killed off within a few years anyway.

The free tier has been 15GB since 2013.

Does anyone miss any of those things?

Do I need a subscription for everything?

>>105890514
I miss Google Talk

>>105890514
I miss Google earth

>>105890535
Google earth is dead?

>>105890520
Yes. Taking $40 once for a HDD that lasts ~ 10 years doesn't make sense when you can make the "customer" pay $1,000 for 10 years instead.

>>105890514
I miss inbox.
It managed my emails perfectly. Gmail is just a worse version of it

>>105890543
They just call it earth now.

>t. early 20s manchild who lives alone with no kids and has no photos of loved ones or anything worthy in real life for that mater, to save

I'd rather buy a couple 128GB USB sticks for a couple of bucks and give them to relatives for the remote case where my house burns down with both my main disk and my backup disks in it

>>105890626
will likely get lost. you will also need to update the data every couple of months or years. doing so (the time spent) will cost you more than what you could earn at a job in that time. it is not worth it

>>105890643
That's ok, nobody ever looks back at these pictures anyway. It's enough that the USB exists even if nobody remembers which drawer it's buried inside

>>105890606
What kind of retard only has one copy of their important files like photos of loved ones? Use the 3-2-1 backup rule.

>>105890626
Cheap thumbdrives and SD cards use bottom tier flash chips binned from more expensive SSDs that are rated for lower endurance and will die within 10 years when kept untouched in cold storage
The only way they can even store anything somewhat reliably is with heavy error correction

10 years of OP's pic is 200$

>adding the family group
what does that mean

>>105890514
Google Domains was the one thing they did good.

>>105890468 (OP)
imagine paying for software or digital services lmao

>>105890468 (OP)
I do not even want or need the free version

>>105890468 (OP)
Hey, cool it with the antisemitism.

>>105890543
>Google earth is dead?
It's literally unusable now on anything but Chrome and Brave (for some reason).
Try it. It grinds down to like 1fps with your entire tab lagging

>>105891340
One rule is to never pay for software or services that don't benefit you.

>>105891366
They delete stuff anyways, I had custom ROMs stored on my GDrive. Mysteriously the ones without the Corona tracking API vanished, only the .zip files after that was added to LineageOS remained.

I really consider the USA my enemy nowadays, kek

>>105890468 (OP)
it's more expensive in my currency

>>105890468 (OP)
2 to 10 usd/month is not a bad price

>>105891504
If you live forever it's infinity dollars. It's also anti-natalist, anti-family, this investment cannot be passed on to your children.

>>105891504
That's equivalent of interest of $2400 in treasure bonds, before taxes. Do you really want to dedicate $2400 of your savings to have automatic backup of your photos?

>>105891397
You don't need to pay at all, everything you need can be found for free if you know where to look.
And it won't be "personalized", you won't need to share contact or payment information, it won't look for updates if you block it through firewall, and with proper backups it's basically yours forever.

>>105890514
Hangouts was useful for the wife and I

>>105890520
Yes. Investors and Executives prefer subscription revenue over other forms.

>>105892236
what about your wife's boyfriend?
