What are you using as a Google photos alternative? Currently I'm using Nextcloud but I'm thinking of switching to a more dedicated solution.

I mainly need to upload photos from my device automatically, have an UI to see and classify them, albuns and sharing.

I set up Immich a week or so back. It's been a dream so far. The object recognition is really way better than expected. The App works really well.

I used this script to import my Google Photos dump. https://github.com/simulot/immich-go

I can't say I used every possible feature of Google Photos but I haven't missed anything yet!

Set Immich up a couple weeks ago and I'm surprised how good it is. Their docs included a simple cli tool to bulk import all my Google photos. Mobile app is working great. I'm really impressed with the search too.
