To be fair if my dad or grandpa hands me his backup, I'd love to keep it and look at those old photos and videos. They hold a greater value than the hardware itself
That's fair
I have a very different view on data, physical property and familial relationships. Everything is temporary to me and I've prefer my stuff to be reused rather than act as an archive to my own life.
My pictures, music and technology related projects are just for myself. Anything I wish to share after my death is stored on an unencrypted drive connected to a Raspberry Pi that acts as my web facing server that serves only static data. It's mainly a bunch of wikis, linux/shell scripting references, some of my git repositories, some survival type ebooks and some other random stuff.
I've lost data multiple times throughout my life so I know I'd be disappointed but not sad if I lost all my data one more time. I do have multiple backups now so I at least have some data resilience compared to the past.
It's always interesting to see different viewpoints, thank you :)
