That makes sense. This archive tool is even more out there because it's not a direct link or file of the content, but just a capture of what the content would be. My work is mostly UI/UX and design related, so the capture is actually pretty valuable.
I'm a bit of a digital packrat, and sometimes like to review personal files from nearly a decade ago, so I think something like this would increase in value for me over time.
Sort of. The more you hoard, the more painful it is to trawl through the hoard to review. It reminds me of Linus Torvald's "Only wimps use tape backup. REAL [adults] just upload their important stuff on ftp and let the rest of the world mirror it." -- let your work be remembered on the basis of who it had an impression.
I've been looking into Nextcloud/Photoprism for a more efficient storage/browser experience, but honestly the software seems pretty amateur so far (vs Google Photos / Apple Photos).
For now, everything is loosely store on an SSD, with different folders for year/month/day (of backup). Screenshots are stored by year.
I'd really like a google photos browsing experience for all my data backup, regardless of content type (well, with filters).
That quote is partially missing the point here : part of the value to you is the emotional one as the creator of that thing - the most obvious example from a slightly different domain being baby photos.
