A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

This can also be self hosted and is a much better photo gallery than nextcloud.

How does it compare with Immich?

I personally like that it needs less babysitting.

Between myself, my wife, and my kids there are 6 client devices. And I like not having to deal with the incompatible cross-version issues that I kept running into with just one client device on immich.

It doesn't have the same ML search that immich has, but they're adding faces, and I've been able to get by with date and location while that kind of stuff is added.

And while I haven't used it yet, I appreciate that they have an easy, readily available "export" function if you decide to switch to a different image gallery

It would be really nice if I could have it sync to both. I'd like to sync it locally and have all the features available, but for convenience I would also like the option of a secure, reputable cloud service that costs a reasonable fee.

They seem good. However, using the app seems to be either/or (local or their service)

They're also twice the price of Google, which is a bit tough to swallow.

Technically I think you can use any S3 compatible storage.

I was looking at running a garage instance on a Zimaboard at my parents' house, but didn't bother to follow through.
