Dilman Dila on Nostr: Why does #google make it so hard to delete photos from google photos? I never signed ...
Why does #google make it so hard to delete photos from google photos? I never signed up for it, and have denied it all permissions on my #android phone, but somehow my photos keep ending up there. Perhaps I might have accidentally used it to open a phone once, and that gave it all permission to upload my photos?
Yet to delete it from the app it looks like I have to go photo by photo. For thousands of them. There seems to be no way to delete all at once.
