You tell me how to automatically sync photos across iOS+mac devices using non-Apple services. I'll wait. (hint: it's a monopoly, you can't use other services). Yeah, I know you can do a manual backup to e.g. Google Photos. It's not the same as seamless bidirectional sync.
Dropbox works also. It would be cool if one could do it via usb like other phones before.

OneDrive supports automatic syncing of photos from iOS to the Mac.
