I’m starting my degoogling journey (mostly looking into the various options at hand) and I was wondering what hood alternatives to Goohle Photos is there? I’m specifically wondering about a service that would double both as a cloud storage and a gallery with a timeline and such. But currently it’s only cloud storage backup (or Instagtam-likes, which is bot something I want) as far as I can tell?

    I use immich, it works the best out of anything I’ve tried (including nextcloud which randomly didn’t upload pictures for some reason)

    If you don’t wanna self host it, there are some services which will host it (and other projects) for you (the only one I can remember is pikapods.com, never used them though)

    Immich is the best I’ve found. Has native mobile apps that can auto upload pics/videos and you can use their CLI utility to bulk import large libraries if you want. Very active development too.

    Edit: sorry, didn’t see the cloud storage requirement. Immich is purely a photo hosting/upload service.

    Nextcloud is a service that ticks most if those boxes (if not all). You can self host if that’s your thing or pay for a hosted service.
