I'd also suggest Immich, but with a warning. On their GitHub page, they state:
Did anyone actually use this over a longer period of time, including updates, etc.? How did it work for you?
I have been using it since v1.1x and that was released around a year ago. In other words, it has been running good enough for me for a year. Features are added and bugs are getting fixed along the way. I have not experienced any major break.
Great! Thank you!
I have it running for a couple of months now, doing just fine. Had to change my compose file a while back due to some change but rock solid so far.
I do run Syncthing too in any case
Thank you very much for the info! Maybe I'll give it a shot again.
Yeah. Immich for the win. But not sure of the performance on iOS.
You can also share photos between users on that instance, and create shared albums where you all contribute you own photos.
Is it possible to have a shared album where I can edit/delete and they can only upload?
not sure about the shared album.
Albums are just links to photos that have already been uploaded.
I think your best bet would be to give it a go, and try all of your different needs.
This looks good, thank you I will use this
It's purely for getting all our photos together in full quality. I will not be using this as cloud storage. And I also have backblaze running on my pc so hopefully that's backed up too
Thank you!
I have been running Immich since v1.1 to this day, and it has been flawless
I found the docker stuff stopped working mysteriously and ran docker compose doen, which deleted all of my pictures. I recommend not using it as a backup solution.
Nextcloud memories as an alternative to Immich. I don't use either so can't say which is preferable, although I'd probably choose Immich unless the other features of Nextcloud are relevant to you (since Nextcloud is rather heavy and complex).
OP, look into photosync in app store! I use this app to sync photos and videos from apple devices to samba. You can download photos as well.
Maybe have a look at PhotoPrism. You can install the app via PWA on their IPhone and upload their pictures through the webinterface. And it indexes images pretty well.
For all you Immich users - does Immich properly support background uploads on iOS? I do see that it is supported in the docs, but wanted an end-user perspective. Nextcloud background photo uploads has been broken on iOS and it doesn't seem like they're willing to fix it
