Sounds good. I think I’ll look into also switching from my Conbee II to a CC2652 based adapter, which might allow me to slowly transition from one system to the other with both adapters running in parallel.

In what ways is it really better? I‘ve switched from deconz to ZHA two years ago, and dread the reconnecting…

Sure, you’d just specify where to download to.

If you’ve got a server with plenty of space you could run icloudpd: https://github.com/icloud-photos-downloader/icloud_photos_downloader

Support confirmed that when you stop a plan, the data is still kept in read only for 30 days. When you start a new storage plan in that timeframe, the data will be part of that new plan and not be lost.

Looks like my wife didn’t have the sharing checkbox for iCloud storage selected — which is distinct from the Apple One Abonnement which includes the storage. Oh well, looks fine now. And the data didn’t get lost.

For some reason it doesn’t. Also, our kids are still on my 50GB plan I initially shared with them, but would be able to switch over to my wife‘s plan now. I just don’t know, whether their data (especially photos) would seamlessly transfer over?

Sounds like a plan 😁 They are closed for today already, but I’ll try that tomorrow.

Not sure I understand your response?

Hearing that you made this step successfully gives me hope. But yeah, I’ll run the iCloud downloader first to have local backups.

She is sharing it with me properly, but apparently my own 50GB plan (which I have had longer) is overriding her share with me?
