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.

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?

I'm planning my homelab, and from the research I've done, Immich is the best but not ready for production and it can't use an already existing photo library. NextCloud memories is the next best alternative, and supports already existing libraries.

A PR was opened last week to add the biggest first element of external library support. Hopefully in the relatively near future it'll be merged. I'll be giving it a shot when it merges.
