Are there any full featured alternatives to PhotoPrism? I’d be happy to support their devs but charging almost $80 a year for basic features like having more than one user is kind of absurd. At that cost I’d rather just pay for the extra dirt cheap storage from Google and keep things there.
That said, I’d really love to continue moving everything I can away from the big G and photos is a sticking point because I have a wife and child and other family members who depend on it.
I’m curious: what’s the use case for multiple users? Seems like PhotoPrism is a fancy photo gallery. Not sure how multiple users is needed for that.
What are the other basic features that aren’t available for free?
giving access to family, a shared gallery + private ones. It’s the bare minimum. You know otherwise mom is calling “ah i lost my phone” - and the last backup was done in 2012 saved on some cheap DVDs with disc rot
You could also setup syncthing and backup the peer directory you know :).
