I want to get into selfhosting since I control of my data and not having to worry about copying my files everytime I flash a new is on my phone. The question is, should I use immich or next cloud? If immich is superior for photos, I don’t mind not having my files on the cloud. I will be self hosting on a rpi4 I have (if it’s possible)
Edit: Thank you all very much for the replies! I will install immich for now and probably setup nextcloud at a later date.
I don’t trust myself to handle secure encryption. Nextcloud has given up on providing client-side encryption at all… So the obvious choice for me is Immich.
Although since I’ve fallen for Ente, I’d probably use that instead.
Unfortunately, Nextcloud has given me so much pain in my attempt to make it E2E that I’ve basically given up on using it at all. For stuff that’s not images or passwords or notes - which is a fleetingly small list of things - I tend to use either Filen or Proton’s services.
FYI, Immich doesn’t do encryption either.
Thank you for letting me know! I can’t believe I assumed it did for so long. I guess it’s not a deal breaker for OP, but it is for me.
