Google photos but self-hosted?

[jszymborski]

Photoprism sorta bills itself this way. I've found the AI features surprisingly useful, as well as the geotagging.

I'm also looking for "Google Photos but self-hosted" with the main feature being automatic object detection.

I just tried the Photoprism demo (https://demo.photoprism.app/browse), searched for "person", "grass", "wave", "head", "eye", "neon" and a bunch of other terms, nothing seemed to find any pictures although I took the concepts from existing photos I found.

Back button is also broken on the demo, which makes it seem like the most basic UX is not there yet in the application.

The quest continues...

Photoprism advertises itself as only having facial recognition, is that not correct?

[jszymborski]

It recognises objects in the photo as well. Here are some random labels from my library:

- Altar

- Bookcase

- Festival

- Keyboard

- Streetcar

Some are very wrong (A photo of a lake as "gallery"), some are wrong but tricky (red geode with white veins as "meat") and most are spot on.

Edit: In fact, I'm not sure that I have the facial recognition configured... perhaps its in a newer release

[LeoPanthera]

Yes please.

I'm pretty happy with Synology Photos on my NAS. It's got face detection, interprets the exif and gives you geo maps, has albums and sharing. Got it set up for my entire family.

It doesn’t back up photos. It exports them. Not the same. Take a slow motion video. The version on your NAS will be 30 FPS, slowed down in the middle. For a backup I expect it to be the 240 FPS version.

Does it have mobile upload?

Sure!
