Would Google like me to delete my 348 photos with 43,237 views [in 31 reviews] as the photos are using my own storage…??

Your post really surprise me @pc163
When did you added you photos and reviews?
You should be at least a L6. What’s wrong in here?
Google is not using your space (given to you for free) of storage.
One of the most common question in Connect is: How can I use my space in Google drive?
Of course, with a quick search you will find all the answer, but for an easy reference I will try to summarize in here the most common questions.
The biggest mistake that I did, was to save a copy of all my photos in Google Drive. Loading photos in Drive is using your storage space
With a correct setting, you will be able to store:
- Photos, in Google Photos, at High Quality (16MP), for free (unlimited storage)
- Videos, in Google Photos, at High Definitions (1080P), for free (unlimited storage)
This is the storage I’m actually using:
Most of the space is used for documents that I have in Drive. As you can see from the details, I am not using space for photos
And I have more than 7450 files (photos and videos) stored
So, don’t worry about space for photos in Google Maps. Make the correct setting, and you will have no problem in storage due to Google Maps or Youtube videos

Hope this can help you
Happy Mapping
