Google Album Archive Is Shutting Down (support.google.com)

"That cloud backup service for incidental images in Google orkut, chat, hangouts and other dead Google spaces has been canned, years later "

0k.. I guess. I moved two images from 2016 out, I'm good.

(I suspect like millions of others I had no idea this was a "thing" so on that anecdata shutting it down is ... meh)

Note that this is entirely different to Google Photos Archive. I have appear to have two pictures in Google Album Archive -- one of which I have used in a blogger post (maybe 10+ years ago). I have no idea whether this shutdown will break my post -- the support page seems a bit short on details.

Yet another service to add to this growing lists of products killed off by Google: https://killedbygoogle.com/
