Replace Google Photos reddit / selfhosted ---------------------------------------------------------------------- marciz34 · 2023-11-08 17:54 My wife is blowing through storage on her Google acct and I don't really want to pay for storage. Looking to just add something to my PC at home like nextcloud? Is there anything better? Doesn't need to be continuous sync, maybe shell upload to it every few days or 1x week. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- umairshariff23 · 2023-11-08 18:03 I didn't like nextcloud much, I have syncthing running that does a one-way backup from my phone to server. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Xitir · 2023-11-08 18:14 Immich is my go to right now. Pretty good replacement for Google photos from my experience. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dazchad · 2023-11-08 18:25 https://www.reddit.com/r/selfhosted/comments/k5nzkj/google_photos_the_ megathread/?utm_source=reddit&utm_medium=usertext&utm_name=selfhosted& utm_content=t5_32hch ---------------------------------------------------------------------- B0PE · 2023-11-08 18:35 +1 immich, best Google photo replacement. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tribak · 2023-11-08 19:01 I’d like to try other alternatives but I’m currently happy with Synology Photos ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thekrautboy · 2023-11-08 19:01 Another one just lazy low-effort... ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EndlessHiway · 2023-11-08 19:08 Learn to read. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- CommanderCT · 2023-11-08 19:10 +1 for Immich ---------------------------------------------------------------------- marciz34 · 2023-11-08 19:23 Thanks for your advice! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- EndlessHiway · 2023-11-08 20:04 I hope it helps. Would keep you from looking so dumb. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Mintfresh22 · 2023-11-08 20:12 They could just be dumb. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- marciz34 · 2023-11-08 20:17 Maybe but then how would I get this kind of 1 on 1 interaction I crave? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- comfreak89 · 2023-11-08 21:16 immich ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cazool · 2023-11-08 21:21 Tell me about it. Just another one of your replies letting us all know how you don't like newbie questions. I for one am shocked! Should try to change it up every once in a while it is getting stale and not that creative. I believe you can put more effort in. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thekrautboy · 2023-11-08 21:38 *More* effort? You mean like the people who make these kind of posts? Or to return one genius idea that the people who defend these posts often have, "if you dont like it then just ignore it bro!" Maybe we should look at your own history and how much you contribute around here... oh wait. Whats the matter, dont have the confidence to comment with your actual account? Or have you been blocked already? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- a_40oz_of_Mickeys · 2023-11-09 00:10 I can't for the life of me get Immich exposed outside my network. Anyone know what labels to use with traefik? ---------------------------------------------------------------------- ozhound · 2023-11-09 00:25 I use this too, but because I have a Synology Nas. It doesn't do facial recognition as well as google though ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Sudden_Cheetah7530 · 2023-11-09 01:12 Immich is so nice and evolving so fast. They are doing really great job. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cazool · 2023-11-09 01:40 Unfortunately had to dust of an alt account I've been sitting on for 7 years since you blocked my main for a time I tried to defend a newb. I do appreciate the quote reply. Not sure the reasoning? Think I'm ashamed of my reply and I'll delete it or edit it? Not so. I'm good with being in the mindset that "Another one just lazy low- effort..." doesn't really add to the conversation and kills the excitement of some one who might be getting into this space. Happy that my real account post history isn't filled with being cranky. So, in summary I'm looking forward to you blocking this account because your skin is too thin. Feel free to quote reply this one as well so it lives in your comment history. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- cazool · 2023-11-09 01:41 also the benefit of this is I'll log off of this account, never see the notification of a reply and continue to enjoy a happy life. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- thekrautboy · 2023-11-09 02:03 > Unfortunately had to dust of an alt account I've been sitting on for 7 years since you blocked my main for a time I tried to defend a newb. > I do appreciate the quote reply. Not sure the reasoning? Think I'm ashamed of my reply and I'll delete it or edit it? > Not so. No you dont delete it, you simply dont use your actual account because either you dont have the confidence to have arguments with your real account, or you are so desperate to let me know that you disagree with me. > I'm good with being in the mindset that "Another one just lazy low- effort..." doesn't really add to the conversation and kills the excitement of some one who might be getting into this space. Happy that my real account post history isn't filled with being cranky. Sure, you use other accounts to act like the real you, while you keep one "clean". Thats perfectly normal behaviour. > So, in summary I'm looking forward to you blocking this account because your skin is too thin. Feel free to quote reply this one as well so it lives in your comment history. **You had to use a years old account just to let me know how much you disagree with my opinion... but i am the one with the thin skin?** **And i have no problem at all having my own comment history visible, unlike you.** ---------------------------------------------------------------------- tribak · 2023-11-09 02:11 Nope, same with Apple photo id, but still prefer this to having my (wife’s and mom’s) phones full ---------------------------------------------------------------------- lespasapp · 2023-11-09 02:12 Already landed on Nextcloud, good. you can try [Les Pas](https://github.com/scubajeff/lespas#readme) if both of you are using Android device. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- randomDevGui · 2023-11-09 07:41 iam also happy with synology photos too, for a one time fee (purchase) you got a lot of storage and its working right out of the box :) I really miss this "one year ago" feature though! ---------------------------------------------------------------------- arcadianarcadian · 2023-11-09 08:07 Nextcloud + memories ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nefarious_bumpps · 2023-11-09 12:29 And self-hosted photos can't be used to train AI for facial recognition then sold. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- super_nicktendo22 · 2023-11-09 13:41 How good is it with tens of thousands of photos? I have a large collection dating back to 2003ish ---------------------------------------------------------------------- nona_deca · 2023-11-09 13:41 Isn't immich still in development. Quite irresponsible of you to suggestan undeveloped project to someone . He may lost all his data ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Xitir · 2023-11-09 14:15 Then they should backup their data accordingly. Development or not, it works quite well for me with multiple users. Backing up weekly to another system takes care of any concerns I have regarding data loss due to it being in development. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Xitir · 2023-11-09 14:18 I can't comment on that scale since I only have around a thousand photos or so that I've imported so far. Hopefully someone with a larger collection can chime in. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- bramvdzee1 · 2023-11-09 15:38 Got it running yesterday (about 15k photos and 1k videos). Haven't encountered any issues yet. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- kmisterk · 2023-11-09 16:50 Thanks for your submission on selfhosted, marciz34. here at /r/selfhosted, we want to make sure everyone gets their chance to try out self-hosting their apps.

My bad for just wanting some actual feedback vs reading old post and a GitHub recommendation page. Just delete this post and others like it moving forward if it's such a big deal. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- kmisterk · 2023-11-09 23:16 It’s not a big deal.
