I want to get into selfhosting since I control of my data and not having to worry about copying my files everytime I flash a new is on my phone. The question is, should I use immich or next cloud? If immich is superior for photos, I don't mind not having my files on the cloud. I will be self hosting on a rpi4 I have (if it's possible)

Edit: Thank you all very much for the replies! I will install immich for now and probably setup nextcloud at a later date.

I use both Nextcloud's Memories app and Immich simultaneously for now, with the same photos. Immich is pointed at a read-only bind-mount of my Nextcloud photos folder on the server side, so they see the same photos. My photos are a mess and I absolutely need the local AI stuff, and right now, neither is perfect, so I have both running and bounce back and forth. If one of them clearly pulls ahead, I'll probably settle on that one in isolation.
