Hey everyone, I’m hoping to find a self hosted and hopefully FOSS alternative to flickr for photo organization and viewing
The sharing with friends part isn’t important
What we’re looking for is a way to store collections of photos, organized and viewable the same way as Flickr
This person takes a ton of photos all the time but they want a place to store the best/only the highlights/their favourites, organized into albums by destination/location/vacation and most importantly easily viewable to reminisce about the good times
They used to use Flickr for this until it wasn’t free anymore
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.

Does Plex do photos or just videos?
Yes but in my experience, the performance is horrible (at least a couple of years ago). Imo, Immich is the way to go now.
