IMO the best place to put photos, at least the master copies is in AWS S3. It is both reliable and redundant, and they don’t mess with your data. They charge you every month for storing it, and again for accessing it, but that is it.
Use anything else you want for day to day usage - Cloudflare, Digital Ocean, Google Drive, etc. whatever fits your budget and needs. But sleep safe knowing your data has a backup.
Same thing with YouTube - you never know when Google might decide to wipe out your channel, and if they do you’ll never know why they did it, and you’ll have no recourse after they have done it. There are plenty of stories on HN where this has happened. So the master copy of all your videos should be in AWS so you can start again if you need to. IMO.
