Looking for an alternative to synology photos. I moved over to synology about 3 years ago and am now considering moving out of the synology ecosystem. I’m looking for something that has a decent android app, wifi syncing, shareable albums, all the standard stuff.

Edit: thanks for the many replies, I’ll likely move to nextcloud as I was planning on deploying that anyway as a synology drive replacement. I’ll look into immich as well.

    Been backing up to NextCloud using PhotoSync on iOS and Android the last few years. I also recently implemented Immich, and although that means doubled up photo backup, it’s nice to test out and witness firsthand just how much Immich is improving with every release.

      Do you feel immich is mature enough to be a primary photos app? I may go the route of nextcloud as I’m planning to migrate to nextcloud from synology drive. Didn’t realize they had a photos backup app ad well.

        From immich.app:

        The project is under very active development. Expect bugs and changes. Do not use it as the only way to store your photos and videos!

      I’m using NC too with the Memory app and not Immich. You that are using both what do you think? Do you think that one is better than the other?
