Yup I have felt the pain of this too! You can download/export the memories you share as well as the memories shared with you by others. Are there any other private backup options you'd like to see?
That's awesome! I'd love to see backups to private S3 buckets. That's where our photos and videos currently get backed up. We also make heavy use of Integromat to glue our various clouds together. But you might take that all with a grain of salt - we are a relatively nerdy group, not sure how "average" those use model would be.
Lol yea I was thinking about a google photos integration but private s3 buckets is next level. Integromat is next next level :)
