Agreed -
I know that this is anal but - At the end of every year, I go through all my photos from that year and delete the crap. I then create a file with all the good stuff which I then put onto to two SSD and upload to 'Photobox'. I then delete that year from (in my case) iCloud. Finally I have the really REALLY good stuff printed and stuffed into an album. Photobox will host for free as long as you place an order with them now and again - my annual really REALLY good prints ticks that box.
Sounds long winded but I've always enjoyed taking photographs - I'm old and value the memories. I would hate to lose them.
I do similar, but source. I only keep the really, really useful ones. Once sent to a client I keep them for 3 months, then they're gone. It is one way of ensuring they come back for me to do another shoot.
