I'm slowly ditching Google lately. Always on the lookout for better options, so lemme know what you're using! 👌

I suggest Ente Photos instead of Immich, if self-hosting is not something for you. It's also more feature complete, as Immich is still actively being built and bugs are expected.
I’ve heard that Ente has fewer features (haven’t personally tried it though) and self hosting isn’t that bad… Immich can have bugs sometimes but never has broken anything majorly (once timelines broke, was fixed in the next version, nothing ever was deleted because of a bug) since I’ve been using it.
Yeah self-hosting is not hard if you are technical, but the average person won't even entertain the idea.
I haven't tried Immich, I'm currently happy with Ente, and I'm planning to move to Immich (and see how it compares) once it's declared stable by the developers.
Yep, fully agree. Honestly the only reason Immich isn’t perfect for me, is because my duckdns goes down all the time, and I run it on an old MacBook in a different country (at a friend’s)… it’s not exactly the most reliable way to host it
