Considering that it's free, always improving and self-hosted, I am more than happy that it lacks some minor features from Google Photos. :) It's not perfect, but I can relax that nothing like this would happen to me:

Not only that, but Google Photos already pulled a huge bait-and-switch. It used to be free unlimited photo storage for compressed photos...until they just stopped.
I love immich!
I am not concerned about that. Business primary goal is to make money, and Google is business, so any free service is temporary, especially if not powered by ads.
