Since i've replaced my Synology 918+ NAS with a Ugreen DXP8800 plus NAS [ network atached storage ] i lost my photodatabase since that software was synology only .
So i had to rebuild something on new hardware and software.
There are two programs that stood out for me : immich and photoprism .
Both programs run in a docker container where the immich also has a backup function for your mobile phone with it's own phone app .
Photoprism doesn't have his own phone app , but does have a great AI to help you to catolog your photos .
It marks the photos on subject , colour and location if there is any gps data in the exif .
main page in Immich :
main page in Photoprism:
people recognition works very well in both programs :

locations of where you took your photos in Photoprism :
locations shown in Immich :
the big difference so far :
in Immich there is an option to trash duplicates if you want a clean database :
in Photoprism the AI makes it possible to sort photos on color , in this case i chose pink :
the same AI in photoprism also detects or atleast it tries to detect the subject in your photo making it a lot easier to search for a certain image.
and when i say it tries i mean some times i wonder ..
the tripod is right but then ...
mushrooms not vegetables
our cat not a baby
Old house not a castle
planting container not cooking
Sheep not a Fish
sailboats no flags
swan not a goose
food not a kitchen
yellow violets not an umbrella so it's not perfetc yet , but on averag it seems fine.
and finally browsing on date in Immich it looks like this timeline on the right of your screen :
but in photoprism you have a map for each month:
Although the uploading / processing of the photos takes a lot longer in photoprism i think i will be using that from now on it gives me more detailed info on my photos making it easier to find that specific photo again .
Both programs are free to use at the moment :
for photoprism : https://www.photoprism.app/
but you can pay a monthly fee
for Immich : https://immich.app/
and has the option for one time payment.
all screen shots are mine :)
ARGGHHHH work in progress :( i did hit the publish to soon instead of the save button ...
post is updated now :)
