Hello everyone!

I’m currently looking to self host some photos to get my girlfriend off of Google Photos. I’m wondering what has been good in your experience.

I never thought about self-hosting the before but a LTT video (I’m sorry) popped up in my feed and I got curious.

I looked into Ente.io and PhotoSync so far but unsure if there are any better options. Also saw that LibrePhotos exist but I haven’t looked into it yet.

What are you using? Have you had any issues? Missing features etc.?

    Everyone seems to love immich, but I found the rapid development cycle combined with the version incompatibilities annoying.

    Ente is seeming like a nice alternative so far and will hopefully be lower maintenance.

      I think Immich has grown out of the most difficult upgrades now. Most changes now are just removing lines from the stack.

        It wasn’t that the upgrades were hard so much as it felt like everytime I tried to open the app on my phone, it errored out because either it or the server needed to be upgraded and the versions weren’t compatible.
