It's quite impressive how much the Immich folks have achieved in a relatively short period of time! I'm glad you found something that works for you :)

Thanks!

Unfortunately I have no idea about the Unraid ecosystem, so I'm not sure what's the best way to approach that. It seems like you can run Docker images, so that's probably one way to go? Let me know if you get it to work!

Depends on what you mean by sharing, but if you put all your photos on a local NAS and run this on it for example, then everyone with access to it would be able to see them through a browser.

There's no explicit sharing feature though.

Hmm, it seems to work for me. Which Android/Firefox version do you have?

Ha, hiring only account managers 😅 It does have search and maps, but they are a bit rudimentary right now. Also I have to find some sample geolocated photos to put in the demo, it doesn't have any right now.

Sorry if these are stupid questions.

Not at all! Thanks for taking an interest.

Does this only show these foss_photo_libraries and your local photos?

I'm not sure what you mean. foss_photo_libraries is a comparison table of different apps someone else maintains, but I thought it was a useful resource. The photos in the demo are a subset of the open images dataset and a couple of other samples that I picked for demo purposes.

If you install it locally you can point it to a folder and it should use each subfolder as an album, or you can configure custom albums.

Does it support jpegXL?

Yes actually, but I don't have many files to test it, so I'm not sure how well it works. If you do I'd be interested to hear how it works for you. It uses FFmpeg to on-the-fly convert anything it can't read natively.

I’d love a seamless zoom feature for images in the browser. I use imagus but I’d love if the popup window could zoom to be bigger than the browser window.

You can zoom by using the mouse wheel or by pinching to zoom if that's what you mean? You should be able to zoom pretty much as much as you want. If you're in the main view where the mouse wheel scrolls photos up and down you can hold Ctrl (Cmd?) to zoom instead.

No concrete plans for auth yet, but there's an feature request for this. I didn't really want to give a sense of false security with a half-baked solution.

For uploading, I thought about it briefly and it could be interesting. How would you expect it to work?

I imagine you would configure a sort of a target folder structure, then it would dump all uploads based in that structure? Or fully managed like GPhotos/Immich where the app hashes, dedupes and owns the files directly? 🤔

Thanks!

You can run it on a subdomain, e.g. photos.mydomain.com with no special configuration, but it doesn't support subpaths, e.g. mydomain.com/gallery/
