So, continuing the theme of a selfhosted, searchable photo gallery, I will stay with PhotoPrism for now. Immich is interesting, but from what I've checked in the documentation, you need to upload photos to its database, it will not use existing photo folders, and this is a dealbreaker for me.

PhotoPrism is so far okayish for me, the people and object recognition is on a barely acceptable level, but all the other functionalities, like map or browsing are great.

@wikiyu it's not exactly webhosting :DI just wanted to have a nice frontend to my NAS, that will allow to search images by topic or location. It's now available outside my LAN and this is how I want it to be

@stfn looks like you've done already exactly what I'm looking at implementing right now. Hopefully a quick simple question: still a happy (enough) PhotoPrism user and confident in the choice of it over Immich?I'm trying to decide which of them to try first.

@yvan When I was trying those toots I chose PhotoPrism over Immich, because then I thought only PP had the ability to ingest existing files into its library.Now Immich also has this functionality, and I have been testing it since today morning.And I think I am now starting to lean towards Immich, I like it because it supports GPUs for ML tasks like face recognition and video transcoding, something not present in PP.

@stfn Thanks, interesting! "On paper" I was leaning towards Immich, but haven't tried either yet. Just got the NAS box set up, photo software is the next step and I have a could of hundred GB of not well organised stuff downloaded from Google, and a similar amount of pre-Google more organised stuff in a directory structure.

@stfn I've got some non-fancy* ones lying around, so that's doable — I'm very much not familar with the whole GPU/ML world so I've no idea how useful a given model/vintage of GPU is for this purpose (my very dusty practical ML knowledge is about 2000 vintage).Another thing to research :) * Having never been a "gamer" my GPU needs have always been modest.

@yvan My rather old 2060 is doing just fine, anything with 4+GB of VRAM will be the right tool
