It featured geotagging and made it pretty easy to get really nicely organized albums for trips.

However I don't really want my stuff on their servers nor am I fond of the subscription for trips I get to take maybe once a year these days.

Currently I use syncthing and some gallery apps (immich, photoprism), but due to network conditions (CG/NAT) accessing these outside my local network can be annoying at times. Ideally I could sync&transfer photos and have them cached on the device instead, which is what Journey accomplished for me.

I would look into options for solving your CG/NAT (DDNS...) problems, since it's a first backup aswell. If your phone is stolen or lost, the captures from the last sync are already on your server.

Bonus if there are any photo editing alternatives to Adobe stuff!

Try GIMP, I switched from PS with relative ease. I made graphic designs, though.

Affinity photo has a free trial and a buy once keep forever alternative for indesign, illustrator and photoshop. Gimp is none of those.

Ive been using Photopea recently to open up PSD files and I've been very impressed for an online, free (with ads), alternative

I like Photopea, although I feel bad... I should have clarified, I specifically meant mobile editing apps unfortunately! For the times when exposure is just a bit low.

I have the whole adobe suite for PC editing, since unfortunately too many of my projects just rely heavily on them. No creative cloud for me, though!
