Many are looking for alternatives to Google Photos, and this comparison table does an excellent job of comparing the most obvious features side by side. Make sure to expand the table for a complete view.
I’m still using Piwigo as it did an automated import of all my photos from Flickr, and although it is packed with features, many of its plugins are no longer supported. It works well still for me, but I’ve been thinking about alternatives.
Immich was one that looked really slick, and the closest I’ve seen to Google Photos, but one big weakness is there is no easy ability to import my existing Piwigo photos (over 10,000 of them). And it does not yet have any editing functionality.
But looking at this table shows me that in fact that Nextcloud Memories seems to tick all the boxes, including some edit functionality, and the ability to point to existing photo folders. Memories is based on Nexcloud’s own Photos app but has some slight improvements. Its appearance is maybe just not as slick as Immich, but it seems very responsive otherwise.
All, but one, apps have demo sites that you can log into and have a good look at.
