Limit # of photos shared to icloud photos -- is it possible?
I currently don't use iCloud photos. I did use Photostream, which was supposedly limited to something like the last 1000 photos taken on any device.
But that went away, and now there's just iCloud photos, and everything I read suggests it will upload photos until one's iCloud storage is full. I have a huge collection of photos, and I'm just not willing to spend enough money every month to store a copy of every photo in my collection.
If I could limit uploads to, say, the last xxxx photos taken, or photos taken in the last x months, or limit the amount of iCloud storage delegated to photo storage, or some similar option, I might find that useful. But I can't find any mention of such options in Apple's documentation.
Am I missing something? Or is this service really all or nothing? (I'll stick with nothing if that's the case.)
