Picasaweb was pretty damn good until google killed it. It was
easy to share albums either publicly (most of them) or with only
those people to whom you've given the password. You could see
captions easily, slideshows, EXIF info etc. Google photos is
just UGLY and difficult to work with. I want to see more photos
on a single screen, but I can't have that.

Are there any free sites that you guys like that will suck in
the albums (maybe 100 or so) from google photos ? The "suck in
albums" thing is pretty much essential since I just store all my
photos (thousands) in a single subdirectory on my HD in
chronological order (filename=filedate+time).

sobriquet:
flickr.com is great for photosharing. You get 1 TB of free space
and you can share images at very high resolution.

I have some albums there already, so I tried to add to the current
one. I couldn't figure out how to upload a number of photos at once,
just one at a time. The drag+drop method doesn't work well with
slackware so I have to select filenames using -- normally --
control/click. Didn't work here. I'm sure it used to or I wouldn't
have EVER used it. Feh :-(

Download the Uploadr: https://www.flickr.com/tools/

It will run in the background and monitor the folders you've selected and sync
them all to Flickr automatically. Voila, all your albums and all your photos on
Flickr. With full Exif

Except this option is only available for people with a paid flickr
account, not for people with a free account.
