The Google Photos feature of finding photos of a specific person in your collection by their face is the key feature my wife really loves. Is there a self-hosted tool (ideally Synology NAS compaible) that gives similar functionally I could have more control over how it’s using/analyzing our photos, rather than needing to trust Google with our family photos just for that feature?
I’ve been testing photoview.github.io running locally on docker and it’s working just fine. Face recognition works amazingly well and fast.
Nextcloud also has a photo album app with face recognition (additional app) which I’ve been meaning to try. There is also the new memories.gallery also in my list of apps to test :)
Immich is pretty much a self hosted version of Google Photos. I highly recommend it. It’s under very active development. I’ve been using it for a few months now and it’s been rock solid despite all the dev on it.
