Just two short years ago I had cobbled together a Google Photos alternative using a couple of separate pieces of free/open source software. Now in 2024, things have become a lot easier. You basically need only one thing now: Immich. Both for mobile and for desktop use.
Development is currently in a very fast and early phase but I can say that for the last several months I had no problems at all with it.
Hit the website to find out:
- How Immich compares o other self-hosting solutions for photos
- How to install via docker-compose
- What features are planned for the future
Good stuff. Very good stuff.
