Ditching OneDrive suggestions for online photo storage (not Google)

I need recommendations please for online photo storage.
I currently automatically back up my photos to both Google and OneDrive and to a seperate hard drive.
A bit of overkill based on paranoia of losing important photos and frankly laziness.
Whilst One Drive is handy for accessing things across devices I'm sure I could manage with Google, I would like to have a second back up for my photos.
Thanks

If you have Amazon prime, you could use Amazon photos, or you can get 1TB of storage for £80 per year.Grumpysally said:I need recommendations please for online photo storage.

Just be minded Amazon only accept .JPG format (possible .PNG), they won't accept RAW or Photoshop files as photos.1

Has that changed recently? Not that I would recommend Amazon photos but you certainly could store RAW files when I tried it.Vitor said:Just be minded Amazon only accept .JPG format (possible .PNG), they won't accept RAW or Photoshop files as photos.0 -

Get hard copies of your important photos. Having them in the cloud is very risky and local backups can corrupt.1
