What's going on with Flickr?
« on: 28 August, 2016, 03:05:29 pm »
I've just opened my Flickr account and although my Albums are there, some of them do not contain the images that they should - just images seemingly randomly selected from all my photos.
Anyone else experienced this?
I can see this being fun when it comes to try and find a particular image. Not.

Like this screen grab


The album called 'Bent 531 Special' should have only the picture of the bent wheel in it.
The other images are from one of my other albums.
This isn't the only album to have been affected in this way  ??? ??? ???

Any ideas?

A bit of investigation shows there to be a direct correlation between this and having downloaded the latest iOS for my phone earlier today which, it seems, has the default setting of giving Flickr permission to interfere with my filing.
Permission has since been revoked.

I gave up trying to use Flickr's iOS app long ago, because it is this: shit.  They'd better not have bollixed my abblebums as uploading Stuffs over crappy hotel wifi is slow enough as it is.

I've never actually used their app on the phone.
Which strikes me as an eminently good reason to delete it.
