Selfhosted
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:
-
Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

No spam posting.
-
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.
-
Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.
-
Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).
-
No trolling.

So I've been working on a setup myself. I actually haven't considered immich but I should. I was just going to do a simple js based webpage local server that auto boots chromium into kiosk mode and randomly switches pictures. I actually had it set up so it weights new photos more heavily so it shows new additions more frequently.
The way I got new photos in was a nextcloud webdav mount. That way my wife and I can just add photos to a folder from our phones and they show up on the frame. I saw a guide online on how to do that with Google Drive too.
So all that to say, that might be an option for you to get photos to a folder. Then maybe point immich to that folder as a source.
