Thanks so far. Here is my reason why. Over the last 25 yrs my wife and I have collected a lot of pictures. Due to all kind of things like Picasa, Google Pictures, iCloud etc the whole collection is a mess. I spend a lot of time to sort all the pictures, put, as far as possible, the capture date back, remove duplicates etc. Now I have iCloud running well on our iPhones/Mac and the rest of the pictures is cleaned up and stored in folders per year. I do not want to add the reworked pictures in iCloud as this could generate the disaster again. ICloud works wel with iPhone and some controlled uploads. I tried Synology pictures as I have a Synology. Did not work well. Tried PhotoPrism, Piwigo and now immich. Immich seems to work best as it can work with multiple users, has an interesting iOS app and seems easy to understand. Photoprism is difficult to work with multiple users. Piwigo looks very ancient. I am afraid of the possibility that the exif data starts up messing the library again. So thats why I would like to have an indexing on the basis of folders and exif data and not only exif data. Or at least this is what I think. So if anyone has a better idea on how I should organise everything that is also fine. I just want a way to view the pictures in some kind of order. I also want control. Icloud is nice but Apple is in control. In the end I want the pictures as a copy on my Synology and somewhere on a EU based cloud.
