Hello everybody, Alex here! After the last announcement on a wording change in response to our mishap of using the words licensed and unlicensed, the team and I gave it a long hard thought over the...
tldr is that you can hide the button that asks for payment and it says “purchase immich” instead of “purchase liscence”
Is immich in a usable state yet? I was looking for a self-hosted image service a while back, but eventually I just went with pigallery2 mostly due to the extremely simple file storage (just point to a folder and you’re good to go), but I do miss being able to manage images/albums from the website and having a more mobile friendly version. I kind of avoided immich due to the repo saying it’s under very active development (#scary).
I’ve been using it for the last year or so, no issues, as long as I confirm there are no breaking changes before updating my docker container. My only real problem is that I sorely, SORELY, miss the editing features I had in Google photos. There’s been more than a couple of times now that I needed to quickly edit a photo as I would have done with Google photos, and when I couldn’t, got aggravated enough to consider switching back. Still chugging along on immich, though. Still holding out hope that one day they’ll add at least some basic editing features.
I can’t compare it to pigallery, but imo it really isn’t fully usable. Lots of bugs for me. I’m still running it but waiting for it to be ready to replace Google photos. It has transcoding errors in the logs and file tracking issues (extra files). All of my recent motion photos are not detected. And I have read on GitHub that they are still working on fleshing out automated repair tasks.
Wondering the same thing… I’ve been meaning to try it.
I’m using PhotoStructure at the moment. It’s not as feature-rich, and the best features are only available on paid subscriptions, but it’s a solid, reliable piece of software. That’s what I want - a focused piece of software that favours stability over feature creep. Its deduplication is the best I’ve seen. The developer works on it full time, which is one of the reasons it has paid subscriptions (to make that sustainable).

Works well, i havent had any bugs, you just have to be sure to read the release notes before updating, as there are breaking changes

Yes.

I use Nextcloud photos
Ente is pretty nice.
