Oh shoot heck dang, time to fire this up!

It might be time for me to make the switch, too Soo many things to selfhost and not enough time, but nextcloud had been annoying me for some time so it might get the priority

I also run both but don't see how Immich could be a replacement for Nextcloud?

I use NextCloud for syncing photos from my phone and sharing photo galleries with my SO. NextCloud is quite bad for viewing photos, that's why I have the Memories plugin and app, but it's still not perfect. I also have the Recognize plugin, but in my setup it's been broken for a few months and I don't have the time to fix it.

So if I replace the photo sharing functionality I could replace the NextCloud itself for file sharing with something lighter. Might even go back to SMB.

I would definitely recommend Immich then. I use it together with my wife and we both upload our photos automatically and create albums together. There're also companion projects, that make sharing albums outside your household easier and safer.
