One of the best pieces of self-hosted software ever to exist.
Edit: This is Immich! for the folks who don't know.
Immich sounds great.
Does it have E2EE? I rent a VPS and would prefer personal files that I have on it to be protected.
It is fundamentally built around the files being decrypted in RAM, for all the search features. You can use an encrypted partition for storing the photos and DB, to avoid having plaintext files on disk.
https://ente.io/ has e2ee. Tehg recently opened up their software so self hosting.
I font have enough exp with both Immich and Ente to make a statement as to whether they have all of the same features or not.
