How-To Geek: This Open Source App Finally Got Me to Leave Google Photos. “I’ve been using Google Photos ever since it launched a decade ago, but have recently been thinking of switching to an alternative. As much as I like Google’s app, I want something with a greater focus on privacy. Ente Photos offers exactly that.”

@rob
"Google Photos."
Hmm...
IDK why they didn't write about it, but just look at the article's image:
It shows two alternatives: @ente and #Immich. I would recommend #Ente over #Immich. It is a great software, I also use it. Its image editing capabilities are not as advanced as #GooglePhotos', but they are improving them too. It has good #AI features, if you are interested in them, and is fast and reliable. Plus affordable too (its #freemium)

Anders als bei kommerziellen Diensten behältst du bei Immich die volle Kontrolle über deine persönlichen Erinnerungen. Immich bietet viele Funktionen, die du von Google Photos kennst: automatische Gesichtserkennung, Standorterfassung, Albumorganisation und eine intuitive Suche. Zusätzlich kannst du mit der mobilen App, Photos automatisch hochladen, ähnlich wie bei kommerziellen Cloud-Diensten.
