Hello everyone!

I'm currently looking to self host some photos to get my girlfriend off of Google Photos. I'm wondering what has been good in your experience.

I never thought about self-hosting the before but a LTT video (I'm sorry) popped up in my feed and I got curious.

I looked into Ente.io and PhotoSync so far but unsure if there are any better options. Also saw that LibrePhotos exist but I haven't looked into it yet.

What are you using? Have you had any issues? Missing features etc.?

I don't know why people recommend Immich. I found it to be the most bare-bone photo app I've ever used. It feels ten+ years old. I tried really hard to make it work but Plex photos is about 20% better and it still sucks.

Another question: I set up the Immich docker image and I'm using Mullvad VPN, however Mullvad VPN removed in-app port forwarding last year. I'm curious whether there is a solution to use Split Tunneling for Immich via another VPN to setup secure remote access outside of the home network?
