  • I am migrating from Syno Photos, which had been the greatest solution I had found, now to Immich, which is so polished and sharing is 10x easier than in Syno. The only gripe to Syno Photos is their implementation of Public/Personal space which is confusing and if you want to share something you have to store duplicate photos in those spaces. I used conditional albums to share certain faces with the partner and it has been OK.

    Now it’s 100% Immich for me:

    • Clean, intuitive interface
    • Easy sharing
    • Very good face detection, better than Google (I compared the same pics I uploaded to both)
    • Easy transition for a Google Photos user
    • FOSS, you’re in full control over the deployment
    • Machine learning container to tag pictures
    • CLI interface to mass upload

    Both galleries claim motion photos support, but for me neither actually works. Immich claims iPhone’s Live Photos, which I don’t care for, but Syno Photos say that in version DSM7 support Android Motion Pics, that I could not confirm.
