Photo library "imports" on all photos taken in the past
I've never manually imported any photos the past couple of years, so noticing this recently is kinda weird:
Basically starting OCT 2017 up until JULY 2021 all the photos I've taken are in Imports as "imported", however they've been shot directly on an iOS device and been part of my iCloud Photo Library since the moment they were taken.
This must have changed somehow recently, as I've never seen this before (only really manually imported images from years ago were in "Imported" beforehand), noticed this just now as I was restoring to a brand new iPad and checking if the backup was applied correctly; now this "Imported" for all my photos/videos/screenshots is there on all devices.
Has anyone experienced anything similar?
These items were not imported. They were shot directly to iCloud in the first place. 🤷♂️
