Nobody ever talking about lychee ?
Yes okay it's not GPL or written in a fancy new language (PHP is still alive xD). But it's simple, elegant, no UX bloat, no ML or IA stuff... Just a plain simple self-hosted photo manager.
One thing I really liked about it, you can import you external photo's with .xmp files, just one checkbox away.
The tag feature is simple but working as expected. Nothing fancy but it does best what's it's supposed to do !!
Call me old boomer but I really like the simplicity of lychee. It's a bit like how reading an article from miniflux or wallabag... Simple html files without bloating your eyes or your brain...
Just my 2c, nothing to see here !
The selfhosted photo management boom happened when Google announced paid plans for Google Photos. That's why there are lots of alternatives aiming at replicating every feature.
In my case, I don't want to manually tag anything. I want a FOSS Google Photos. Nothing more, nothing else. If Immich was orosuction ready I would have akready switched. I haven't read much about Ente, but I have no interest in the rest because they lack some key feature I really appreciate.
