TIFU by thinking I can just use one drive and upload the albums one by one and downloading them and then deleting them.

Well I actually kept doing it until I noticed the synch was not only deleting the one drive file it was also deleting my albums that were synched at the same time.

Now I have to recover 40 Albums because I didn’t check what was going on while doing this whole thing.

Now I have to recover them all and while doing so I noticed it has wrong date/ time now.

Pro tip: You should synch your fotos with one drive, download the photos, UNSYNCH again and then delete.

    Onedrive seems to think they are magnanimously letting me peek at their files on their servers, instead of having copies of my files backed up to the cloud. I once turned off syncing for a folder containing game save files, since Onedrive kept spamming me with emails warning about many files being deleted at once every time the game deleted old auto saves. Turning off the sync deleted my local files. Fuck Onedrive.
