Description
Expected behaviour
Auto upload / manual upload uploads photos to subfolders based on year and month
Actual behaviour
Photos only upload if 'Use subfolders' is not enabled and then they upload to the /Photos directory
Steps to reproduce
Upload a photo with 'Use subfolders' enabled <-- this won't work
Upload a photo with 'Use subfolders' disabled <-- will work as expected
iOS version
12.1.4
App version
2.23.1.10
Server configuration
Operating system:
Raspbian
Web server:
Apache
Database:
MySQL
PHP version:
7.0
Nextcloud version:
15.0.5
Additional Details:
This feature seemed to work prior to the 2.23.1 update with the new 'Media' tab.
Update:
It seems like auto upload can't automatically create the subfolders, but I just created one for March (03) and auto uploads seem to be working. Not sure if it will continue working in April, however.

Research direction
Start by reproducing photo upload with “Use subfolders” enabled on the affected iOS app version, then trace the upload flow responsible for creating year/month directories. Compare it with uploads when subfolders are disabled; done means both automatic and manual uploads create or use the expected subfolders successfully.
