    Sentimentality, images of long dead family members.

    Monetarily, my Steam account.

        Not really, no. Though there are DRM-free games on Steam, so I can always recommend checking up on those and copying them to a backup drive, because why not

    Hah, the number on my bank account sometimes feels like it’s just pixels.

    But most valuable to me would be old irc chatlogs with people who’ve passed. It’s been years since I’ve felt the need to pull them out and read them, but I’m happy to know they’re there.

    My orginal pokemon blue save file and the 151 (152 if you count missing no) from my childhood. They are all just chilling and hoping that maybe one day I’ll come back and play with them like the good old days when we were masters.

    Photos of family; family records.

    And a OneNote notebook I have (backuped to OneDrive by default, but also gets backuped to Google Drive daily) in which I try to organize a family tree, with resources, old papers and records, etc.

    My book collection. I have digital files from every book that I want or have read. If I lost it I don’t know what I would do, all my memories are there

    Super sad storytime. Back in the early 2000s, I had an awesome Sony camera phone with a real xenon flash.

    I probably had thousands of photos on it on an SD card that has been through multiple phones.

    Suddenly, my mom started feeling pains in her stomach area and was later diagnosed with staged 4 cancer.

    After she passed away, I accidentally fell into a lake and broke my phone and lost every photo and video of my mom. I only have a video of her voice that I posted on Facebook while she was washing my dog for the first time.

    Since then, I haven’t lost a single photo. Each photo and video is saved in 4 different locations, in a B2 bucket and in different countries.

    I still have this old phone. I’m hoping one day I can retrieve it. Until then, always save your photos in multiple places.
