Eventually all those valuable pics they take will be lost if GP is disabled and phone is lost or screen damaged.

And someone will complain - you can't even have sensible defaults.

I understand you perhaps have hatred for google but hosting immich or ente is not for everyone.

It is far easier for average Jose to pay for GP or some cloud.

Unless you plan to setup at least some free cloud don't bother to lecture others
