Is something wrong with Amazon Photos? I lost 240k photos

Pop goes the photo cache, all my family photos mysteriously vanish into the depths of Amazon Photos

Is that your only backup? Because precious photos need more than one (like any backup regime really)

Still it sucks and it shouldn’t happen, hopefully it’s just a reporting error in the app.

How fast are Backblaze transfer speeds these days? I wasn't a huge fan of the client, but running something third party like Arq[1] felt like a bad workaround.

I don't know if it's due to one of those weird GDPR blocking rules (I'm in Europe) but amazonforum.com doesn't let me connect. It just drops my connection:

   http https://www.amazonforum.com
  
  http: LogLevel.ERROR: ConnectionError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='www.amazonforum.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: / (Caused by NewConnectionError(': Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno 61] Connection refused')) while doing a GET request to URL: https://www.amazonforum.com/

But if I connect indirectly, like through archive.is, it works: https://archive.is/wip/5MK8A

Sorry for your loss.

(here I was hoping that the Docker thing filled the surprised Pikachu face quota for the week’s frontpage)
