    As an admin selfhoster I can tell you that immich is fantastic. My wife is using it on her phone. We used photoprism for a while to test out the waters of self hosting. But immich offers much more flexibility and ease of use as well as a multiuser setup. It gets videos and images from our various phones and my DSLR. It really is great and we have unloaded images from Google. I can’t wait for Google to ask us to opt out of getting AI naked images of our selves. With immich I can share links with family if I want and I can just remove those link when I am done with that. No one else can accidentally land at my photos from Google became a login is required.

      Thanks for your impressions. I currently run Nextcloud and its photo/video backup is ‘ok’ but I wish they would get around to implementing a delay in backups before removing from one’s local phone album; and viewing albums is a bit clunky. The image tagging is also hit or miss.
