Hi everyone
Do you use PhotoStructure or PhotoPrism? And why?
I would like to index all photos which I’ve taken with a DSLR (JPG and RAW).

Everyone uses Immich now 🤣
Thanks, I’ll give Immich a try.
I used to use photostructure. I like its appearance and feature set (and the developer is a super nice guy), and really like how it leaves my asset files alone but works with sidecars, but i stopped using it because I only use open source software now.
I currently use Immich* and really like its appearance, features, self-hostability, but dislike how it manages the asset files. Even if i add my assets as an external library, which immich will theoretically not manipulate, the immich apps on iOS and Android will only upload images to a sifferent library that Immich manipulates. I’d have to ignore Immich’s upload feature and roll my own, which is annoying.
*I realize Futo’s license is not really FOSS. Disapppointing, but at least not peopeietary and secret.

Two points to that:
- Immich is licensed under the AGPL3.0, not the FUTO license.
- If it’s not FOSS, it’s proprietary, no in between. Even if it’s source available and open to public contributions, it’s still proprietary. As far as proprietary goes, I’d say it’s a good place to be, but proprietary nonetheless.
I agree, but my point was that the source ia available to see and assess, which is important to me and why i am using Immich.
I used photoprism for a long time, but when I tried immich, I dropped photoprism in an instant.
Tried photoprism, then tried immich. Never went back.
Easier installation, easier management, more polished, just better overall
I used photoprism briefly, and it seemed okay, but my use-case was porn so I switched to stash.
If you want a Google photos clone, most people use immich.
