You seem to be unfamiliar with hyperbole, or maybe just didn’t recognize it here.

Also they kind of enshittified Google photos by walking back the unlimited storage promise. Probably not the best project to point to for “Google doesn’t suck” arguments.

They didn’t walk it back. Pixel 1 still has unlimited storage.

You’re insufferable.

    It’s not insufferable to call it insufferable behavior. That’s not irony.

    Ya because saying Google walked back on a promise when they didn’t. Whatever lies to fit your agenda. Pixel 1 still gets unlimited backups.

  And for some time, other devices did as well. And then they changed it. Would some other term than “walking back” describe “they offered a good deal to customers, and then changed it to a less good deal” better for you?
  
  Do you like work for Google or something? Probably not. The handful of people I’ve met who work there aren’t nearly this zealous about defending it.

    Are you hanging your entire argument on the word “lifetime”?
    
    From their announcement
    
    Starting June 1, 2021, any new photos and videos you upload will count toward the free 15 GB of storage that comes with every Google Account or the additional storage you’ve purchased as a Google One member. Your Google Account storage is shared across Drive, Gmail and Photos. This change also allows us to keep pace with the growing demand for storage. And, as always, we uphold our commitment to not use information in Google Photos for advertising purposes. We know this is a big shift and may come as a surprise, so we wanted to let you know well in advance and give you resources to make this easier.
    
    From this you can infer photos prior to June 21 2021 did not count against the storage. And now they do. Making the product worse for users.
