Remove already backed up folders in Google Photos. (lemmy.ml)

My device, Xiaomi 11 Lite NE 5G, is currently running on Android 14 (PixelOS). There's unlimited Google Photos backup. I have turned on device folder backups. While Google Photos app provides an option to delete all the photos in default camera folder which have been uploaded, there's no such option for device folders like WhatsApp images, WhatsApp videos, etc. I have to go to each photo within Google photos' WhatsApp folder and check if it's uploaded or not and then delete them. Is there any easier way?

Consider backing up in NextCloud, instead of sending your private pictures to a spy-ware giant who will sell it to the best bidder :P

If the product is free, but not open source, then you('r data) is likely the product to be sold / made money upon.

That's correct. Will check out NextCloud.
