1) Photos taken from my mobile phone (android) are backed up to "Google photos". This allows me to search by dates/objects/people/location etc. Google also allows me to cast (screensaver) it to the television using chromecast.
2) Photos taken from DSLR are backed up to the folder on external drives(2) and also synced with google photos.
This set-up is working fine for many years. I haven't explored any other tools in recent times.

Just FYI, Google Photos backups will not retain most of the metadata in your images and videos when you try to recover your originals using Google Takeout.
