Immich vs Ente ? (lemmy.world)
submitted 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) by warmaster@lemmy.world to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
 

Chosing the right photo app for my family

So, Immich vs Ente, this is my last piece of the selfhosted puzzle. Please help me make an informed decision:

Immich

on the plus side, it seems to have more features and it has a gazillion integrations with other selfhosted software. Downside: breaking changes are fairly common AFAIK.

Ente

looks like the opposite, more mature, scoped and less integrated.

Am I reading this right? Am I missing something?

Edit: Thanks everyone, I'm going with immich!

That's very neat! It doesn't really work for my Ente use-case, but definitely good to know!

It wasn't rsync that started breaking because of some Claude changes, right?

Kind of. Claude helped the developer find lots of bugs. He decided to start making major changes to fix these bugs. Major changes often break things.

I think it was rsync indeed. Afaik rclone and rsync are different developers, despite the name

rsync and rclone are two different projects
