There are solutions like ente and immich but I think they both are pretty overkill for my use case. I almost never look through my old photos so I don't need an app and a web UI or whatever. The face detection thing does not entice me either. I don't need encryption either.

Is there a simpler solution for this? I am thinking of just writing a script that syncs the camera folder using adb or something like that. But before I create a jank monstrosity I thought it would be better to ask around.

You can also configure one way syncs. So even if the photos are deleted from your phone, they still exist on the other side

iirc the syncthing Android app comes with DCIM camera preconfigured just like that.
