There’s a brand new feature in Google Photos that enables users to know how much space each image is taking up in the cloud. It’s located in the “backed up” category of the image’s metadata.

Heads up: Google's unlimited uploads for high-quality photos is ending on June 1st, 2021. That means you only have a few weeks left to back up as many pictures as you can on the service before the new free storage limit kicks in.
As Google Photos transitions away from its free unlimited storage model, the company is starting to push users towards higher-paid tiers through disingenuous marketing. In a recent subscriber email, Google goes back on original promises and states "high quality" may not actually be high quality.
Yahoo acquired Tumblr for $1.1 billion today, but that's not the only major move the company announced. Today Flickr users were also treated to a "spectacular" redesign. The service has been upgraded in major ways, and has been given a brand new look and feel.
