what is everyone using for photos?
Looking for an alternative to synology photos. I moved over to synology about 3 years ago and am now considering moving out of the synology ecosystem. I'm looking for something that has a decent android app, wifi syncing, shareable albums, all the standard stuff.
Edit: thanks for the many replies, I'll likely move to nextcloud as I was planning on deploying that anyway as a synology drive replacement. I'll look into immich as well.

Photoprism, running on a Raspberry Pi 4. I'm just running it as a single user, and it's been working well for that. A couple of notes:
- Video transcoding is a bit iffy on the rpi, but I'm running it under docker and might just move it all to a mini pc at some point
- I don't have it accessible publicly, but get to it online via Tailscale
- No app, but the Web interface is good.
- I'm currently running it in "read only" mode (mainly out of initial paranoia when trying it out, but it seems fine) so I have syncthing backing up the photos from my phone wirelessly and occasionally do an import of new images in.
There is an app activelly maintained unofficial android client and its great https://github.com/Radiokot/photoprism-android-client
Thanks for the heads up, I will check that out!
I'm super not knowledgeable about codecs and shit, but IIRC there's one that the rpi 4 is just garbage at dealing with. x265 I think it's called?
