I know Synology Photos and Plex are kinda already self hosting...but they're not, really. And I know Plex is selling my data left and right at this point. Probably Synology too.
And let's face it, Synology Photos just kinda sucks. Honestly, Plex kinda sucks at this point too.
So they can get outta my face.
@alisynthesis I have been using #Immich for a long while now, and other than a few issues with a weird initial setup, it's been great.
Its facial recognition stuff will almost certainly trigger purists, but you don't need to enable that at all.
I installed #Jellyfin a few years ago and used it as much as I used #Plex ie: never - I forgot what it even was until a few weeks ago when I was cleaning up :)
I have been playing with #Tailscale to make some of the connectivity easier, but I still haven't had too much time to dig that deep; it seems pretty great though. I especially like the CEO's blog posts on what appears to be a very transparent policy.
