why the hell are you using airdrop??

upload it to icloud and have icloud client in the computer sync it.. It will just show up there automagically..

That is what i do, i have not plugged an iPhone to a computer in ages.. my last three were likely never plugged at all..

Do you constantly clear your free 5GB of iCloud storage or do you pay money to do things that should be achievable for free?

This is super tangential, but isn't secondary storage basically free now? You could look at it as a % of overall computing spend (phone, laptop, desktop, acccessories, etc) or even just price/TB historically, and either way it's a rounding error.

Airdrop pictures and video to other people while traveling on a restricted data limit or no internet.

3GB of stuff after a day of traveling easy.
