I tried Ente as well, but could never really get along with the UI for some reason. There is something about the way they handle groupings and the differences in features across web, desktop, and app. My internal debate about if I trust pixelunion to not access my pictures vs E2EE is still ongoing...

I'm selfhosting Immich on Hetzner with a Storagebox for.. well.. storage. Immich is great for my use case, but ideally someone else would manage the server for me. I am testing out pixelunion.eu which is hosted Immich by a Dutch company (apparently with data centers in Falkenstein and Finland so potentially using Hetzner). So far it seems like a solid offering. My main worry is that the company is quite new.
