Yes, I highly recommend not relying on alpha software ever as your daily driver. I never give my photo viewing software write permissions on my images, so there's never any risk of losing data. And yeah, I'm not directing anyone outside my household to it, so I currently don't need to worry about servicing a bunch of users.
The app/webapp mismatch issue has been more annoying that I think it needs to be. I understand the need to make security updates, but breaking compatibility this often is unusual.
But again, my point is, the money you give them is a donation. If you don't want to donate, then don't. There should not be any incentive to get you to donate, besides seeing the project continue.
If you don't give immich write access to photos you lose one of their biggest advantages, i.e. having your phone upload the photos directly. So now you need something else like syncthing to do that job, which is not as elegant.
