I'm looking for a Google Photos search replacement in local, preferable FOSS.
Does anyone know one?

Immich is a really good self hosted option

This is really the only answer.

Louis Rossman affiliated group FUTO is pitching in to support development of Immich which hopefully will iron out bugs it currently may have.

Synology Photos has a search function. It's not as good as google's though.

Unfortunately not FOSS

Not really local but selfhosted: Nextcloud + memories

I think Mylio does this, even in its free version. I don't think it's FOSS though.

Photoprism is working great for me.

Both Immich and PhotoPrism are great, personally I prefer Immich because it has official mobile apps. PhotoPrism only has an unofficial Gallery app for Android, but requires you to use a proprietary app called PhotoSync to actually synchronize your photos.
