I would like to try Immich and at the same time I am already using Nextcloud to sync all my photos from my phone. Is there a way to keep my photos on Nextcloud?

They have started implementing read-only folders for Immich with the latest release. And it does actually work pretty well.

However it currently is a very manual process via the command line (and not very well documented, especially for docker) and it has limited features as it does not automatically sync new images and does not remove deleted images from its database yet.

I’m using Nextcloud to sync my photos and use the read-only feature of Immich which works really well. I have a cronjob to automatically sync the latest photos into Immich over night which also works quite nicely.
