I’m starting my degoogling journey (mostly looking into the various options at hand) and I was wondering what hood alternatives to Goohle Photos is there? I’m specifically wondering about a service that would double both as a cloud storage and a gallery with a timeline and such. But currently it’s only cloud storage backup (or Instagtam-likes, which is bot something I want) as far as I can tell?
Maybe try Immich? You can self host it or maybe host it somewhere
How does it compare to Photoprism when it comes to image recognition?
I don’t know actually, since I dont own a server. Heard its pretty decent tho
Synology photos is exactly that, comes with synology nas.
This is the one I’ve found, but was not sure about setting up a NAS. On the other hand, the investment might return when comparing to a monthly payment. I mostlynposted to know other options.
Thanks though, it is good to have it mentioned here for sure.
I also use the nas for automated daily backup of my PC.
For the cloud storage part I can tell that Nextcloud serves the purpose fine.
I have configured our Android devices with Nextcloud app to upload new images directly into the
my-nextcloud-user/files/SofortUploadfolder. It has a structure/SofortUpload/ImageFolder/year/months/images, so for example/SofortUpload/Camera/2023/08/IMG_20230803_174100.jpg(“Sofort” is German for “immediate”)
This auto-upload has been configured and happens (in our cases) also for the mobile device folders
Pictures,Screenshots,Stickers,TelegramandWallpaper.For the timeline and viewing part I would also take suggestions, as having not yet found a good solution.
