Super sad storytime. Back in the early 2000s, I had an awesome Sony camera phone with a real xenon flash.
I probably had thousands of photos on it on an SD card that has been through multiple phones.
Suddenly, my mom started feeling pains in her stomach area and was later diagnosed with staged 4 cancer.
After she passed away, I accidentally fell into a lake and broke my phone and lost every photo and video of my mom. I only have a video of her voice that I posted on Facebook while she was washing my dog for the first time.
Since then, I haven’t lost a single photo. Each photo and video is saved in 4 different locations, in a B2 bucket and in different countries.
I still have this old phone. I’m hoping one day I can retrieve it. Until then, always save your photos in multiple places.
wait hold on youre hsing the same phone? thats really bad, whenever data loss occurs the firsr thjng yiu should do is stop using the pjone entirely and send it in to a data recovery specialist
Photos of family; family records.
And a OneNote notebook I have (backuped to OneDrive by default, but also gets backuped to Google Drive daily) in which I try to organize a family tree, with resources, old papers and records, etc.
