Question

My photo back up to iCloud alway return, using sll iPhone storage

How in the world do I prevent over 50k of photos, most triplicates + from ending up back on my iPhone. It makes my phone virtually useless bc I am left without memory. And what is causing my photos to duplicate? Files as well. At this point I need therapy, bc there’s no way to manually delete what I’ve got.

iMac 21.5″ 4K, macOS 10.15

You can choose to use iCloud to store the originals but doing so will also store a smaller footprint on the device (providing you're using the Optimize Phone Storage feature). Alternatively, you can offload the photos to a computer or external hard drive/device, or maybe even a third-party cloud storage option, e.g. Dropbox, Google Photos.
