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?

Test driving NextCloud Memories. Looks nice, works inside Nextcloud (no need to set up and maintain one more service).

Main con so far - no mobile app

Nextcloud itself does have an app, though. Don't know if you'll still be able to use those additions or not through it.

Thank you for checking! I don't have a readily accessible server yet.

You can "install" it while it's open in your browser - good enough for me

Yeah, that's what I'm using too

I hadn’t heard of Memories before. I’ve just set up an Immich server and I’m not super impressed with it, if I can shut that down and use my pre-existing Nextcloud server instead that’d be great!

What’s the development pace been like for Memories?

I can't say I'm following all release notes, but development is active. You can take a look yourself https://github.com/pulsejet/memories
