It depends. In addition to the local Photos.app album various cloud services (iCloud, WhatsApp, Google Photos, Dropbox, Microsoft, etc) might propose storing photos also in their services. I usually try decline them because I already have headaches caused by duplicates from other sources (family and relatives using those services and sharing images with stripped metadata) anyway. Despite those precautions I occasionally spot a duplicate with somewhat different date and then I have to compare which one is the best "original" and what date & time to use...
