Nice advice 🤠! I save mine to Google photos. I also have a few phone's ( 5 I don't use) I have thousands and editing takes a lot of time ( Whew!) To be honest I usually forget until I'm close to the end of my storage!
I'm a digital pack rat.
Oh there's 10 years of pics on my main Facebook page.😉

It's true what Dave said about flash drives, good but can get lost Etc.
