One of the best pieces of self-hosted software ever to exist.
Edit: This is Immich! for the folks who don't know.
Seriously everyone pushes Immich so hard I'm a little suspicious of it now :D
Edit: all right, all right, I installed it. It has a thing about not uploading all the pictures I give it, some error out. I have a feeling it is due to the library being on a NAS share.
It's crazy good for something FREE. Like infinitely better than any major crop google apple etc because you KEEP your photos. Anything you upload to the cloud is being mined by them.
The only thing I tell people is that you need a cloud backup.
I have an automated nightly worker that zips all my photos encrypts them with a 32 character password and then uploads it to a bulk storage facility.
Yeah. I just put the media location on my nas, and that is being mirrored to hetzner.
