I’m not a pro, but I use iCloud Photos to back up everything. This bug honestly makes me nervous. If something gets corrupted and I don’t even notice I might lose years of memories without knowing.

That really is not a backup. You should store things in files (disk images or archives) and media that you control and can checksum. And which you know you can recover from without relying on any service, company, or download being available in the future. Make sure to replicate before the media rots and have redundant copies. That way, digital data can be kept unchanged indefinitely.

Might want to have some redundancy for that just in case. I would never trust them for something as important as that
