Anyone use Fototime for photo hosting?
Looks like Fototime has been down for a week and may be gone for good.

Fototime was a paid site. Worked great for 20 years.....then POOF!.....GONE!
It must not have been many people using it because I have found very little discussion about it online. I found a little discussion here: https://watchintyme.com/index.php?threads/%F0%9F%93%B8-fototime-down.732644/page-3 That's about it.
Since the Fototime crash I have put some photos up on Google Photo.
As I mentioned, even paid online storage is not a certainty.
Myself, one of the online storage places I was paying for disappeared with no trace one day and gone was the 9 months of paid service that was left that I had paid for (I paid by the year).
Get used to it, you WERE very lucky to get 20yrs out of it as I only got 2.25 yrs out of the paid one I was using.
This is one of many reasons I refuse to depend on online storage for backup anything of my data..
I will say this, if you are planning to go ahead with another paid storage, research it, see if you can locate a real sticks and bricks address with a real working phone number that gets answered by a live body that is inside the USA.. That will eliminate a lot of outside the USA fly by nighters that standup cheap storage, take your money and fold when you are not looking..
