@ajsadauskas @asklemmy I host Nextcloud on an computer at home using docker. Nextcloud is great as a file, calendar, contact server to replace Google drive and their calendar and contacts sync service.
It does not do photos well at all, neither the memories plugin nor the photos plugin, IMHO. If you are looking to replace Google Photos and are able to self host, I would recommend Immich.
I'm going to go ahead and disagree with Memories not doing photos well. If you have it and Recognize setup properly, they replicate nearly all google photos features.
@Routhinator Maybe, but I had considerably less trouble setting Immich up than memories. I had to try to install extra stuff to the docker container itself, IIRC. I seem to remember python libraries and things needing to be installed. Immich, I just spun up and it worked. The hardest part was GPU passthrough, but that is not even a requirement to use it nor was it terribly difficult.
That said, I moved on fairly quickly and respect your opinion. If it works for you, then it is the correct tool.
Yeah this is maybe a difference between install choices. I used kubernetes and the helm chart. Recognize does not have a dedicated container, but the nextcloud container has GPU resources assigned using the Intel GPU operator, and that makes pass through easy. Much easier than vanilla docker.
