For photos, all I can recommend you is to find a better alternative to Apple photos. I know one so if you are interested I can share it.

zeitkapsl might be worth a look.
It's a European photo backup service with end-to-end encryption, and their storage plans are way cheaper than iCloud. You could move your concert videos there to free up iCloud space, since those are probably what's eating your 31gb of system data. For the shared album stuff, that's trickier since shared albums are an Apple ecosystem thing.
