Hey, I'm wondering what everyone's solution is for self hosted "cloud" storage of photos? I've been running a PhotoPrism server on my Synology for a while but it's missing some features I'd like to have. While we've set up auto-uploading from different phones to the web server, I haven't found an easy way to share read-only access to the pictures or specific albums. There is an admin login, but no way (that I've found) to create multiple users with different permissions.

So SelfHosted lemmy, what's your solve for photo storage, sorting, and sharing?

I've been using Photoprism. Single-user is fine for me. I see lots of people switching to immich, but haven't checked it out myself.

Photoprism supports sharing albums via link to people who don't have accounts. Mine is remotely accessible using Tailscale. I would like to set up proper remote access via DNS, but haven't made that leap yet, I'm too nervous about opening ports up.

I'm happy with photoprism too. I paid for the photosync plugins.

I don't love the free-mium model, but you can edit your docker config to unlock it I hear.

Not anymore it syncs up with their subscription server to enable features. If they don't enable proper multi user support soon I'm going to bail.

I am definitely missing this in Immich, but otherwise happy I switched over.
