How to clear Google storage

So I have used around 90% of the 15GB storage and have already stopped photos backup since a year. I have created alternate new accounts to transfer my data but haven't found a way to do that seamlessly. If anyone knows how to do that please help.

Also is the Basic Google Plan worth it which gives 100GB for around 130 per month?

Get your photos/drive data out, store in good old physical drives, remove unnecessary stuff from online storage.

I am also trying to do the same by downloading relevant photos and docs and transferring it to another I'd. How much time did it take you btw?

2-3 days. Consider a week because Google locks your account considering security (heavy files downloaded and deleted)

Nowadays, it’s a very simple process. I had 80+ Gbs in my academic account and had to move it out. There’s simple google which packed it for me for download within 4-5 hrs.

Delete unnecessary stuff, like old emails, etc. But I'd really suggest getting 1300 Rs/yr subscription for 100 GB. Just because of the simplicity. I'll do the same soon.

If you have mirrorless camera

Do you use it extensively or is it just laying in a corner? Do you think it was a good investment or just an impulse purchase? Are smartphones enough for pics/videos?

SaaS product you’d pay 100 / month for?

Viners, finally I’m frustrated enough to make a move on building my own business.

Just curious about what b2c SaaS would you not mind paying 100 / month for? Preferably in the capital markets / personal finance space?
