I asked in a chat for prism a while back but there was no interest, I would like something self hosted like this that works on zip files.

I have a large collection of google photos "takeout" zip files. I dont need to unzip them but I would like a photo app to view them.

They are stored on a server where i can run docker not "locally".

Does anyone have a recommendation?

"Thanks"

Why would you keep photos in a zip file? Are they uncompressed RAW or something?

Anyway, you could try using something like https://bitbucket.org/agalanin/fuse-zip/src/master/

To mount the zip file and then use any tool you want to operate on the files?

Why would I want to unzip them? I got them zipped from google photos takeout. The folder structure inside is not something i would browse.

I will look at the mount option. Thank you for you suggestion!

Because the zip file only makes the photos harder to work with and probably takes more disk space than if they were unzipped (since you fundamentally can’t compress an already compressed file).
