One of the best pieces of self-hosted software ever to exist.
Edit: This is Immich! for the folks who don't know.
Yup, purchased myself 2 days ago. Absolutely deserve all of the support!
Is it better than NC?
If you use Nextcloud, install the App Memories and you will have the same functions as Immich plus all the upload functions of Nextcloud.
But if you are not interested in all the Nextcloud functionalities (including contact and calendar sync, musicserver, filesharing, etc) and just want picture management, Immich is the better choice.
That's exactly what I have, and that's exactly what I wanted ... DARN ... oh well. I guess it's nice to have the document sync as well
Never used NC but this just works.
Buying my copy soon!
Immich sounds great.
Does it have E2EE? I rent a VPS and would prefer personal files that I have on it to be protected.
Thanks for the reminder, done as well :)
How does it compare to Photoprism? Been on that solution for a while and I really like it, but have seen lots of people suggest Immich as well.
im like maybe one of few people who barely take photos. its great because i dont need to worry about the costs of cloud storage
I mostly set it up for a few major albums like my wedding album. Other than that it's like 90% dog pictures lmao
