Form here I started looking at #photonix. It also has a dedicated app, but the link to the play store gives 404.

Ok, so far #LibrePhotos + #UhuruPhotos looks promising, but I ran out of time. Maybe I will try some more later, tonight.

This time it seems that's going to be the other way around: the docker compose file is in the old (v1) format, so podman-compose barfs. Debian stable's old docker-compose is happy this time. Instructions also made me clone the whole repo when I actually just need the compose and env files.

Next is #LibrePhotos + #UhuruPhotos. No app in #FDroid, but at least is has 0 trackers. Both demos servers are currently down, and as I already have one tool installed via docker, I can as easily install another. So point for #Docker.

I imported a single image and I created one album and attached that image to it. I think that based on the Storage Template and the Album features, I could make it do what I want. But it also has a lot of features I don't want, like Likes, different users, ML for recognizing objects and a map (based on #OpenStreetMap, but with their own tile style, I wonder why); which is a good thing, but would require more time that I want to spend.

Next?

Last night something happened, the VM stopped responding and I went to bed. This morning I completely reinstalled it, and used podman-compose instead. HT https://mastodon.social/@rompe The thing take a looong while to download docker images, start, and the download the models for the ML system. More details later.

It depends on a version of docker that includes the compose plugin, not the docker-compose tool, and that version seems to be newer than the one Debian stable has. Dist-upgrading to testing...

So... #Immich is a few docker containers in a trench coat, and it's going to take me more than a afternoon firing with half the pistons¹ (the other half taking care of mi kids) to untangle it...

¹ yes, in the era and future of EVs, this metaphor will be lees and less relevant. It's for the new generations to find a new one.

⚠️ The project is under very active development.

⚠️ Expect bugs and breaking changes.

⚠️ Do not use the app as the only way to store your photos and videos.

Yikes...

"Immich requires Docker with the Docker Compose plugin". 'Requires'? No bare metal option? Oh-oh...

"The Postgres database files are typically between 1-3 GB in size". This starts looking less and less promising. Will do a first run on a VM. Will take the opportunity to setup my #Ansible dev VM/LDX container/whatever. Yes, I'm already yak shaving :)

RAM: Minimum 4GB, recommended 6GB.

CPU: Minimum 2 cores, recommended 4 cores.

That's a lot. I hope my gallery does not really require so much HW. Not that I don't have it (my 13yo laptop has more than that), but it will be sharing it with some other apps, hopefully also with map rendering.

"My name is Alex. I am an Electrical Engineer by schooling". This does not bode well... I have used software designed by Communication Engineers and by Scientists (but specific for their domains) and boy, then don't fit well in my Computer Person brain...

Yo! #Immich uses 114.4MiB of disk space!

But.

I seems to do exactly what I want. I will probably have to do some gluing to be able to import my gallery as it is (which is mostly based on on-disk tree, #Digikam and hard links). I see a blog post brewing. (I hope) new soon.

My current gallery⁰ is driven by https://files.gallery/. It's paid, but it's cheap, and really good. But phone support is ... meh. So I'm looking for a web gallery when at worst I can change the layout system, but what I'm also interested in is a good phone support via a simple app, also preferably installable via #FDroid. Maybe also if it makes a good local cache. Does #immich or any other¹ cover this? Let's see!

Fsckit. That's it. I'm somewhat handicapped. I had to zoom to 170% to figure out that 👨‍🦼 is actually a person in a wheelchair, and the OP just wanted to say "I'm handicapped".
