    I use a docker build of this on my Synology NAS: https://github.com/gilesknap/gphotos-sync

    Then I have a task set to start the docker container up at 2am every morning, which then automatically backs up any new images, then the docker container stops.

    Works really well.

    I just buy a hard disk every other year and throw a google export there.

    Amazon Glacier. The price is just too good.
