• PhotoPrism: Browse Your Life in Pictures

  I looked at a bunch of these 2 years ago and ended up using PhotoView for a private gallery. It had the right mix of simplicity and features, and I was actually able to get it running. https://github.com/photoview/photoview. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Image delivery for weddings

  I can suggest 3 options. * Photoview - It is like a gallery with recursive folder structure (folders inside folders) support. You can create shareable links for the folders, with password protection. The UI is great. And your clients will be able to download the complete folder, also individual images at either full resolution or reduced. The issue is you cannot use the UI to add or delete photos, but it can be a... Source: 12 months ago

• Photos: nextcloud? Immich?

  I have tried A LOT of solutions and I finally stopped after using Nextcloud and Photoview. I synchronise files from my computer to Nextcloud using rclone and view them on Photoview whenever I need. You can sync to you nextcloud using their official app on phone.

• Amazon Photos just ate 240,364 of my photos

  Self-host and use Photoview [1], it has face recognition. I use this since 2 years with 5TB of photos (on ZFS) and it works flawlessly. It is worth it - everything under your control and you decide when to migrate. [1]:https://github.com/photoview/photoview. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Google Drive misplaces months' worth of customer data

  This is not for everyone, but I host my family photos myself, most recently with this: https://piwigo.org/. I have been doing this since 2007 (started on a different software, called "gallery". Was able to migrate from gallery2 to gallery3 and now piwigo), and so far no major issues. Advantage: I can easily share photos with family, no need for iCloud, Facebook, or indeed any service- they just need a web browser... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• I created UltimateHomeServer - A K3s based all-in-one home server solution

  A couple additiona maybe?: - Piwigo great for photo management. Could be used as an alternative to Google Photos - Nexcloud for file sharing. Replacement for Google Drive. Source: 11 months ago

• Is there a way to create a mass photo storage system that can be accessed anywhere?

  I use https://piwigo.org/ on a old PC that I installed Linux on. Source: 12 months ago

• Organization of projects, photos and models?

  I have on my list to evaluate self-hosted image clouds Piwigo and Photoprism but they don't bridge the photogrammetry gap either. It might even be more time consuming if I have to download the assets I'm working on first. Source: 12 months ago
